Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Embodiments of the invention are directed to a computer-implemented method for generating a sleep optimization plan. A non-limiting example of the computer-implemented method includes receiving, by a processor, genetic data for a user. The method also includes receiving, by the processor, Internet of Things (IoT) device data for the user. The method also includes generating, by the processor, a sleep duration measurement for the user based at last in part upon the IoT device data. The method also includes generating, by the processor, a sleep optimization plan for the user based at least in part upon the genetic data.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A computer program product for generating a sleep optimization plan, the computer program product comprising: a computer readable storage medium readable by a processing circuit and storing program instructions for execution by the processing circuit for performing a method comprising: receiving genetic data for a user, the genetic data comprising a presence of a gene polymorphism in BTBD9, TOX3, BC034767, MEIS1, MAP2K/SKOR1, or PTPRD; receiving IoT device data for the user; generating a sleep duration measurement for the user based at last in part upon the IoT device data; correcting the sleep duration measurement based on the presence of the gene polymorphism; and generating a sleep optimization plan for the user based at least in part upon the genetic data and the corrected sleep duration measurement. 2. The computer program product of claim 1 , wherein the genetic data is sleep-quality genetic data. 3. The computer program product of claim 1 , wherein the IoT device data comprises physical exertion data for the user. 4. The computer program product of claim 1 , wherein the physical exertion data comprises data from the group consisting of heart rate data, accelerometer data, gyroscope data, altimeter data, temperature sensor data, bioimpedance data, and combinations thereof. 5. The computer program product of claim 1 , wherein the IoT device data comprises light exposure data. 6. The computer program product of claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises receiving, by the processor, caffeine intake data for the user. 7. The computer program product of claim 1 , wherein the method further comprises receiving caffeine-metabolism genetic data for the user. 8. The computer program product of claim 1 , wherein the caffeine-metabolism genetic data comprises a determination of a presence or an absence in a polymorphism in a cytochrome P450 1A2 gene, an aryl hydrocarbon receptor gene, or both. 9. The computer program product of claim 1 , wherein the method comprises generating the sleep optimization plan in a cloud environment. 10. A processing system for generating a sleep optimization plan, the processing system comprising: a processor in communication with one or more types of memory, the processor configured to: receive genetic data for a user, the genetic data comprising a presence of a gene polymorphism in BTBD9, TOX3, BC034767, MEIS1, MAP2K/SKOR1, or PTPRD; receive IoT device data for the user; generate a sleep duration measurement for the user based at last in part upon the IoT device data; correct the sleep duration measurement based on the presence of the gene polymorphism; and generate a sleep optimization plan for the user based at least in part upon the genetic data and the corrected sleep duration measurement. 11. The processing system according to claim 10 , wherein the genetic data comprises data from the group consisting of sleep-quality genetic data, caffeine metabolism genetic data, and limb-movement associated genetic data. 12. A system for optimizing sleep patterns, the system comprising: a plurality of IoT sensors configured to generate IoT device data; a genetic information database, the genetic data comprising a presence of a gene polymorphism in BTBD9, TOX3, BC034767, MEIS1, MAP2K/SKOR1, or PTPRD; a sleep analytics engine in communication with the plurality of IoT sensors and the genetic information database; and an output interface; wherein the sleep analytics engine is configured to: generate a sleep duration measurement for a user based at last in part upon the IoT device data; correct the sleep duration measurement based on the presence of the gene polymorphism; and generate a sleep optimization plan for the user based at least in part upon the genetic data and the corrected sleep duration measurement. 13. The system of claim 12 , wherein the sleep analytics engine is provided in a cloud environment.
