- Start time of event (clock time and since falling asleep)
- Length of event
- Length of time since the previous event in the same night
- Event characteristics (binary format: did or did not do it):
- 5 levels scale of actions
- 11 levels scale of actions + repetitive behaviors
- Heart rate
- Average value for the night
- Max value at time of event
- Length of time since last drug taken
- Sleep stage at time of event (provided by sleep tracking device)

Sleepwalking event characterization
Based on the data recorded for each sleep walking events I described them the following way:

Wonderful blog.. (I can't get OpenId to work though?). Look forward to heart rate or heart rate variability data? Don't understand the complexity variables and/or 5 levels scale of actions 11 levels scale of actions + repetitive behaviors (will keep looking at the site though).
ReplyDeleteHi Chris,
ReplyDeleteThere is more about the complexity scores here:

The idea is to find a way to compare 2 events. The complexity score provides a qualitative assessment of each event while the heart rate provides a quantitative one.
Heart rate data are available on each parameter looked at, usually graph B titled "average event heart rate increase".
As for OpenID I am not familiar with that product. It could be that Google intentionally blocks that third party, this blog being part of Google.
