Parameters description for [FITBIT_SLEEP_INTRADAY][PROVIDERS][RAPIDS]:

Key                              Description
[COMPUTE] Set to True to extract FITBIT_SLEEP_INTRADAY features from the RAPIDS provider
[FEATURES] Features to be computed from sleep intraday data, see table below
[SLEEP_LEVELS] Fitbit’s sleep API Version 1 only provides CLASSIC records. However, Version 1.2 provides 2 types of records: CLASSIC and STAGES. STAGES is only available in devices with a heart rate sensor and even those devices will fail to report it if the battery is low or the device is not tight enough. While CLASSIC contains 3 sleep levels (awake, restless, and asleep), STAGES contains 4 sleep levels (wake, deep, light, rem). To make it consistent, RAPIDS grouped them into 2 UNIFIED sleep levels: awake (CLASSIC: awake and restless; STAGES: wake) and asleep (CLASSIC: asleep; STAGES: deep, light, and rem).
[SLEEP_TYPES] Types of sleep to be included in the feature extraction computation. Fitbit provides 2 types of sleep: main, nap.
[INCLUDE_SLEEP_LATER_THAN] All resampled sleep rows (bin interval: one minute) that started after this time will be included in the feature computation. It is a number ranging from 0 (midnight) to 1439 (23:59) which denotes the number of minutes after midnight. If a segment is longer than one day, this value is for every day.
[REFERENCE_TIME] The reference point from which the [ROUTINE] features are to be computed. Chosen from MIDNIGHT and START_OF_THE_SEGMENT, default is MIDNIGHT. If you have multiple time segments per day it might be more informative to set this flag to START_OF_THE_SEGMENT.

Features description for [FITBIT_SLEEP_INTRADAY][PROVIDERS][RAPIDS] RATIOS [ACROSS_LEVELS]:

Feature                            Units Description
ratiocount[LEVEL] - Ratio between the count of episodes of a single sleep [LEVEL] and the count of all episodes of all levels during both main and nap sleep types. This answers the question: what percentage of all wake, deep, light, and rem episodes were rem? (e.g., \(countepisode[remstages][all] / countepisode[all][all]\))
ratioduration[LEVEL] - Ratio between the duration of episodes of a single sleep [LEVEL] and the duration of all episodes of all levels during both main and nap sleep types. This answers the question: what percentage of all wake, deep, light, and rem time was rem? (e.g., \(sumduration[remstages][all] / sumduration[all][all]\))

Features description for [FITBIT_SLEEP_INTRADAY][PROVIDERS][RAPIDS] RATIOS [ACROSS_TYPES]:

Feature                            Units Description
ratiocountmain - Ratio between the count of all main episodes (independently of the levels inside) divided by the count of all main and nap episodes. This answers the question: what percentage of all sleep episodes (main and nap) were main? We do not provide the ratio for nap because is complementary. (\(countepisode[all][main] / countepisode[all][all]\))
ratiodurationmain - Ratio between the duration of all main episodes (independently of the levels inside) divided by the duration of all main and nap episodes. This answers the question: what percentage of all sleep time (main and nap) was main? We do not provide the ratio for nap because is complementary. (\(sumduration[all][main] / sumduration[all][all]\))

Features description for [FITBIT_SLEEP_INTRADAY][PROVIDERS][RAPIDS] RATIOS [WITHIN_LEVELS]:

Feature                            Units Description
ratiocount[TYPE]within[LEVEL] - Ratio between the count of episodes of a single sleep [LEVEL] during main sleep divided by the count of episodes of a single sleep [LEVEL] during main and nap. This answers the question: are rem episodes more frequent during main than nap sleep? We do not provide the ratio for nap because is complementary. (\(countepisode[remstages][main] / countepisode[remstages][all]\))
ratioduration[TYPE]within[LEVEL] - Ratio between the duration of episodes of a single sleep [LEVEL] during main sleep divided by the duration of episodes of a single sleep [LEVEL] during main and nap. This answers the question: is rem time more frequent during main than nap sleep? We do not provide the ratio for nap because is complementary. (\(countepisode[remstages][main] / countepisode[remstages][all]\))

Features description for [FITBIT_SLEEP_INTRADAY][PROVIDERS][RAPIDS] RATIOS [WITHIN_TYPES]:

Feature                                                    Units Description
ratiocount[LEVEL]within[TYPE] - Ratio between the count of episodes of a single sleep [LEVEL] and the count of all episodes of all levels during either main or nap sleep types. This answers the question: what percentage of all wake, deep, light, and rem episodes were rem during main/nap sleep time? (e.g., \(countepisode[remstages][main] / countepisode[all][main]\))
ratioduration[LEVEL]within[TYPE] - Ratio between the duration of episodes of a single sleep [LEVEL] and the duration of all episodes of all levels during either main or nap sleep types.

Assumptions/Observations

  1. Deleting values from [SLEEP_LEVELS] or [SLEEP_TYPES] will only change the features you receive from [LEVELS_AND_TYPES]. For example if STAGES only contains [rem, light] you will not receive countepisode[wake|deep][TYPE] or sum, max, min, avg, median, or std duration. These values will not influence RATIOS or ROUTINE features.
  2. Any [LEVEL] grouping is done within the elements of each class CLASSIC, STAGES, and UNIFIED. That is, we never combine CLASSIC or STAGES types to compute features when LEVELS_AND_TYPES_COMBINING_ALL is True or when computing RATIOS.

[DAY_TYPE] The features of this provider can be computed using daily averages/standard deviations that were extracted on WEEKEND days only, WEEK days only, or ALL days
[GROUP_EPISODES_WITHIN] This parameter contains 2 values: [START_TIME] and [LENGTH]. Only main sleep episodes that intersect or contain the period between [START_TIME, START_TIME + LENGTH] are taken into account to compute the features described below. Both [START_TIME] and [LENGTH] are in minutes. [START_TIME] is a number ranging from 0 (midnight) to 1439 (23:59) which denotes the number of minutes after midnight. [LENGTH] is a number smaller than 1440 (24 hours).

Assumptions/Observations

  1. These features are based on descriptive statistics computed across daily values (start/end/mid times of sleep episodes). This is the reason why they are only available on time segments that are longer than 24 hours (we need at least 1 day to get the average).
  2. Even though Fitbit provides 2 types of sleep episodes (main and nap), only main sleep episodes are considered.
  3. How do we assign sleep episodes to specific dates?

    START_TIME and LENGTH control the dates that sleep episodes belong to. For a pair of [START_TIME] and [LENGTH], sleep episodes (blue boxes) can only be placed at the following places:

    Relationship between sleep episodes and the given times([START_TIME], [LENGTH])

    • If the end time of a sleep episode is before [START_TIME], it will belong to the day before its start date (e.g. sleep episode #1).

    • if (1) the start time or the end time of a sleep episode are between (overlap) [START_TIME] and [START_TIME] + [LENGTH] or (2) the start time is before [START_TIME] and the end time is after [START_TIME] + [LENGTH], it will belong to its start date (e.g. sleep episode #2, #3, #4, #5).

    • If the start time of a sleep episode is after START_TIME] + [LENGTH], it will belong to the day after its start date (e.g. sleep episode #6).

    Only main sleep episodes that intersect or contain the period between [START_TIME] and [START_TIME] + [LENGTH] will be included in the feature computation. If we process the following main sleep episodes:

    episode start end
    1 2021-02-01 12:00 2021-02-01 15:00
    2 2021-02-01 21:00 2021-02-02 03:00
    3 2021-02-02 05:00 2021-02-02 08:00
    4 2021-02-02 11:00 2021-02-02 14:00
    5 2021-02-02 19:00 2021-02-03 06:00

    And our parameters:

    • [INCLUDE_EPISODES_INTERSECTING][START_TIME] = 1320 (today’s 22:00)

    • [INCLUDE_EPISODES_INTERSECTING][LENGTH] = 720 (tomorrow’s 10:00, or 22:00 + 12 hours)

    Only sleep episodes 2, 3,and 5 would be considered.

  4. Time related features represent the number of minutes between the start/end/midpoint of sleep episodes and the assigned day’s midnight.

  5. All main sleep episodes are chunked within the requested time segments which need to be at least 24 hours or more long (1, 2, 3, 7 days, etc.). Then, daily features will be extracted and averaged across the length of the time segment, for example:

    The daily features extracted on 2021-02-01 will be:

    • starttimeofepisodemain (bedtime) is 21 * 60 (episode 2 start time 2021-02-01 21:00)

    • endtimeofepisodemain (wake time) is 32 * 60(episode 3 end time 2021-02-02 08:00 + 24)

    • midpointofepisodemain (midpoint sleep) is [(21 * 60) + (32 * 60)] / 2

    The daily features extracted on 2021-02-02 will be:

    • starttimeofepisodemain (bedtime) is 19 * 60 (episode 5 start time 2021-02-01 19:00)

    • endtimeofepisodemain (wake time) is 30 * 60(episode 5 end time 2021-02-03 06:00 + 24)

    • midpointofepisodemain (midpoint sleep) is [(19 * 60) + (30 * 60)] / 2

    And avgstarttimeofepisodemain[DAY_TYPE] will be ([21 * 60] + [19 * 60]) / 2
