1. A method of treating a sleep disorder, the method comprising:
detecting signals associated with a plurality of symptoms or signs of the sleep disorder at a sensor disposed in relation to a human body;
processing the signals to create a symbolic representation of the sleep disorder, wherein the symbolic representation indicates a relationship of the signals to the sleep disorder empirically and not based on physiologic mapping of the signals to the sleep disorder;
stimulating a region of the human body to alter the symbolic representation between detected signals and the sleep disorder, wherein the symbolic representation as altered indicates treatment of the sleep disorder.
