In PAutilities: Streamline Physical Activity Research

PAutilities 1.1.0

What's new:

• Increased R dependency to 3.5.0
• Added risk analysis for cardiovascular disease
• Added Bland-Altman analysis function
• Added functions for time series dataframes, to test for continuity, reduce to full days, and manage variable order
• Added a function to determine epoch length
• Continued to develop functionality related to resting energy expenditure and body mass index (the latter will eventually be moved to the anthropometry package -- see https://github.com/paulhibbing/anthropometry)
• Added functionality for residual adjustment

PAutilities 1.0.1

What's new:

• Some minor modifications have been made to clean up internal code.

• The transition pairing method unit tests have been temporarily suspended.

PAutilities 1.0.0

What's new:

• Added a function (weight_status) to classify body mass index for adults using CDC cutoffs. (This can also be used as a wrapper for the existing function that classifies youth BMI based on CDC percentiles.)

• Added Rcpp functions related to rolling windows (get_indices to extract indices for rolling windows; rolling_groups to extract rolling subsequences of raw data).

• Removed dependency on orphaned clues package (resulting in changes to unit test cache)

PAutilities 0.3.1

What's new:

• Added a vignette for the Transition Pairing Method

PAutilities 0.3.0

What's new:

• Added paired equivalence testing functionality, including plot method
• Added a function to classify activity intensity from metabolic equivalents and (if available) posture
• Added a wrapper for base::rle that gives a data frame with original rle information, plus start/stop indices for each run
• Added various performance indicators to summary.transition
• Converted summary.transition output to an S4 framework, and added addition/subtraction methods
• Added spurious curve generation functions
• Adjusted Transition Pairing Method to make it more robust (e.g. to deal with missing values)

PAutilities 0.2.0

What's new:

• Removed unused dependency on package AGread
• Added support for calculation of RMR via sliding window analysis
• Added process management utility for easy messaging and timekeeping
• Added tools to compare objects more specifically than via all.equal
• Added na.rm = TRUE to the mean bias line on Bland-Altman plots
• Added shape control as an option for Bland-Altman plots
• Cleaned up TPM summary method
• Added rejection of non-consecutive pairings to the TPM

PAutilities 0.1.2

Summary

This is a second resubmission of version 0.1.0. The following changes have been made:

• Changed title to eliminate redundancy
• Expanded the description field in DESCRIPTION to provide more detail about what the package does.
• Swapped donttest{} in for dontrun{} in documentation where appropriate
• Added detail to package documentation

PAutilities 0.1.1

Summary

This is a resubmission of version 0.1.0. The extraneous LICENSE file has been removed.

PAutilities 0.1.0

Summary

This is the initial release of PAutilities. Current features include:

• Bland-Altman plots
• Bouted moderate-to-vigorous physical activity analysis
• Formatted descriptive statistics
• Demographic calculations (age, BMI-for-age percentile)
• Metabolic calculations (energy expenditure conversions, basal metabolic rate predictions)
• Analysis of bout detection algorithm performance
