• Sleep spindles are distinct electroencephalogram (EEG) patterns of brain activity that have been posited to play a critical role in development, learning, and neurological disorders. Manual scoring for sleep spindles is labor-intensive and tedious but could supplement automated algorithms to resolve challenges posed with either approaches alone. A Personalized Semi-Automatic Sleep Spindle Detection (PSASD) framework was developed to combine the strength of automated detection algorithms and visual expertise of human scorers. The underlying model in the PSASD framework assumes a generative model for EEG sleep spindles as oscillatory components, optimized to EEG amplitude, with remaining signals distributed into transient and low-frequency components. A single graphical user interface (GUI) allows both manual scoring of sleep spindles (model training data) and verification of automatically detected spindles. A grid search approach allows optimization of parameters to balance tradeoffs between precision and recall measures. PSASD outperformed DETOKS in F1-score by 19% and 4% on the DREAMS and P-DROWS-E datasets, respectively. It also outperformed YASA in F1-score by 25% in the P-DROWS-E dataset. Further benchmarking analysis showed that PSASD outperformed four additional widely used sleep spindle detectors in F1-score in the P-DROWS-E dataset. Titration analysis revealed that four 30-second epochs are sufficient to fine-tune the model parameters of PSASD. Associations of frequency, duration, and amplitude of detected sleep spindles matched those previously reported with automated approaches. Overall, PSASD improves detection of sleep spindles in EEG data acquired from both younger healthy and older adult patient populations. •PSASD enhances sleep spindle detection, relative to previous methods.•The novel framework personalizes the sleep spindle detector for each individual.•The GUI combines the strengths of detection algorithms and human scorers.
