Score sleep and shorter rhythms

Question

When does immobility sleep occur, and does activity contain a shorter repeatable component?

What you need

A recording whose sampling interval and sensor meaning support an immobility rule.

Click path

  1. Check missingness so dropout is not mistaken for inactivity.
  2. Run Score immobility sleep and declare the minimum continuous duration.
  3. Inspect episodes and circadian profile, not only total sleep.
  4. Run Find ultradian rhythms after accounting for the circadian component.
  5. Treat peaks at simple circadian harmonics cautiously.

What success looks like

Sleep bouts and the ultradian candidate are supported by enough valid samples and carry no unresolved edge or harmonic warning.

What it does not prove

Immobility is not electroencephalographic sleep, and a spectral peak is not a mechanism.

What gets saved

The result downloads contain the binary sleep mask or reconstructed component plus settings and provenance.
