PAutilities
This package provides utilities to support a range of tasks in
physical activity research. These include the items in the list below,
which is expected to grow and mature over time. Feature/pull requests
are encouraged!
- Activity intensity classification from metabolic equivalents and (if
available) posture
 
- Analysis of bout detection (i.e., change point detection) algorithm
performance
 
- Assessment of cardiovascular disease risk
 
- Bland-Altman analysis and plotting
 
Bouted moderate-to-vigorous physical activity analysis
(now recommend using analyze_bouts from PBpatterns) 
Demographic and anthropometric calculations (age, BMI,
BMI-for-age percentile, weight status) (now recommend using anthropometry) 
- Formatted descriptive statistics
 
- Indexed run length encoding
 
- Metabolic calculations (energy expenditure, unit conversions,
resting energy expenditure predictions, sliding window resting metabolic
rate calculations)
 
- Paired equivalence testing (including a plot method)
 
- Programming management (e.g. runtime updates, object
comparisons)
 
- Reordering data frame variables
