Package 'actimetrics'

Title: Create Metrics Actigraphy and Activity Analysis
Description: Provides functions for calibrating, counting, and summarizing actigraphy and activity data into specific metrics and sleep measures. The metrics include activity counts, step counts, activity index, Monitor Independent Movement Summary Unit (MIMS), mean amplitude deviation (MAD), and provides wrappers for sleep estimation from activity counts using Tudor-Locke (2014) <doi:10.1139/apnm-2013-0173> and Sadeh (1994) <doi:10.1093/sleep/17.3.201>.

Apply Tudor–Locke sleep period detection

Description

Delegates to actigraph.sleepr::apply_tudor_locke(). Input must be 60-second epoch data with activity counts and a sleep state. Data from acti_apply_cole_kripke() is accepted directly. Data labeled by acti_apply_tudor_locke_diary() is also accepted: its logical sleep column is converted to the S/W states expected downstream.

Usage

acti_apply_tudor_locke(data, ...)

Arguments

data

Epoch-level data containing activity counts and sleep state.

...

Arguments passed to actigraph.sleepr::apply_tudor_locke().

Value

A data frame summarizing detected sleep periods.


Apply a sleep diary to epoch data for Tudor–Locke

Description

Adds a logical sleep column to epoch data from diary onset and wakeup times. The result can be passed to acti_apply_tudor_locke() when it also has activity counts and represents 60-second epochs. The wrapper converts the logical diary labels to the S/W states required downstream.

Usage

acti_apply_tudor_locke_diary(
  data,
  sleep_diary,
  time_col = "time",
  diary_onset_col = "onset",
  diary_wakeup_col = "wakeup",
  sleep_col = "sleep"
)

Arguments

data

Epoch-level data containing a POSIXct timestamp column.

sleep_diary

A data frame with POSIXct sleep onset and wakeup columns. Each interval may span midnight; multiple days are supported.

time_col

Name of the POSIXct timestamp column in data.

diary_onset_col

Name of the diary onset column.

diary_wakeup_col

Name of the diary wakeup column.

sleep_col

Name of the logical sleep column to add or replace.

Value

data with a logical sleep_col, TRUE from onset (inclusive) to wakeup (exclusive).
