PLMS/h comparisons between automatic methods and manually scoring.

The squared correlation coefficient (r2) between PLMS/h determined automatically versus manually is shown in the table for previously published detectors and our PLM calculator with and without the SNR+ option. PLM are classified according to AASM 2007 scoring criteriaa with adjustment to LM classification for our classifier as described in the text.*RLS symptoms as defined in the text.aIber C A-IS, Chesson A, Quan SF.
