Initial Configuration
You need to follow these steps to configure your RAPIDS deployment before you can extract behavioral features
- Add your database credentials
- Choose the timezone of your study
- Create your participants files
- Select what day segments you want to extract features on
- Modify your device data source configuration
- Select what sensors and features you want to process
When you are done with this initial configuration, go to executing RAPIDS.
!!! hint
Every time you see config["KEY"] or [KEY] in these docs we are referring to the corresponding key in the config.yaml file.
Database credentials
- Create an empty file called
#!bash .envin your RAPIDS root directory - Add the following lines and replace your database-specific credentials (user, password, host, and database):
[MY_GROUP]
user=MY_USER
password=MY_PASSWORD
host=MY_HOST
port=3306
database=MY_DATABASE
!!! warning
The label MY_GROUP is arbitrary but it has to match the following config.yaml key:
```yaml
DATABASE_GROUP: &database_group
MY_GROUP
```
!!! note You can ignore this step if you are only processing Fitbit data in CSV files.
Timezone of your study
Single timezone
If your study only happened in a single time zone, select the appropriate code form this list and change the following config key. Double check your timezone code pick, for example US Eastern Time is America/New_York not EST
TIMEZONE: &timezone
America/New_York
Multiple timezones
Support coming soon.
Participant files
Participant files link together multiple devices (smartphones and wearables) to specific participants and identify them throughout RAPIDS. You can create these files manually or automatically. Participant files are stored in data/external/participant_files/pxx.yaml and follow a unified structure.
!!! note
The list PIDS in config.yaml needs to have the participant file names of the people you want to process. For example, if you created p01.yaml, p02.yaml and p03.yaml files in /data/external/participant_files/ , then PIDS should be:
yaml PIDS: [p01, p02, p03]
!!! tip
Attribute values of the [PHONE] and [FITBIT] sections in every participant file are optional which allows you to analyze data from participants that only carried smartphones, only Fitbit devices, or both.
??? hint "Optional: Migrating participants files with the old format"
If you were using the pre-release version of RAPIDS with participant files in plain text (as opposed to yaml), you can run the following command and your old files will be converted into yaml files stored in data/external/participant_files/
```bash
python tools/update_format_participant_files.py
```
Structure of participants files
!!! example "Example of the structure of a participant file"
In this example, the participant used an android phone, an ios phone, and a fitbit device throughout the study between Apr 23rd 2020 and Oct 28th 2020
```yaml
PHONE:
DEVICE_IDS: [a748ee1a-1d0b-4ae9-9074-279a2b6ba524, dsadas-2324-fgsf-sdwr-gdfgs4rfsdf43]
PLATFORMS: [android,ios]
LABEL: test01
START_DATE: 2020-04-23
END_DATE: 2020-10-28
FITBIT:
DEVICE_IDS: [fitbit1]
LABEL: test01
START_DATE: 2020-04-23
END_DATE: 2020-10-28
```
For [PHONE]
| Key | Description |
|---|---|
[DEVICE_IDS] |
An array of the strings that uniquely identify each smartphone, you can have more than one for when participants changed phones in the middle of the study, in this case, data from all their devices will be joined and relabeled with the last 1 on this list. |
[PLATFORMS] |
An array that specifies the OS of each smartphone in [DEVICE_IDS] , use a combination of android or ios (we support participants that changed platforms in the middle of your study!). If you have an aware_device table in your database you can set [PLATFORMS]: [multiple] and RAPIDS will infer them automatically. |
[LABEL] |
A string that is used in reports and visualizations. |
[START_DATE] |
A string with format YYY-MM-DD . Only data collected after this date will be included in the analysis |
[END_DATE] |
A string with format YYY-MM-DD . Only data collected before this date will be included in the analysis |
For [FITBIT]
| Key | Description |
|---|---|
[DEVICE_IDS] |
An array of the strings that uniquely identify each Fitbit, you can have more than one in case the participant changed devices in the middle of the study, in this case, data from all devices will be joined and relabeled with the last device_id on this list. |
[LABEL] |
A string that is used in reports and visualizations. |
[START_DATE] |
A string with format YYY-MM-DD . Only data collected after this date will be included in the analysis |
[END_DATE] |
A string with format YYY-MM-DD . Only data collected before this date will be included in the analysis |
Automatic creation of participant files
You have two options a) use the aware_device table in your database or b) use a CSV file. In either case, in your config.yaml, set [PHONE_SECTION][ADD] or [FITBIT_SECTION][ADD] to TRUE depending on what devices you used in your study. Set [DEVICE_ID_COLUMN] to the name of the column that uniquely identifies each device and include any device ids you want to ignore in [IGNORED_DEVICE_IDS].
=== "aware_device table"
Set the following keys in your `config.yaml`
```yaml
CREATE_PARTICIPANT_FILES:
SOURCE:
TYPE: AWARE_DEVICE_TABLE
DATABASE_GROUP: *database_group
CSV_FILE_PATH: ""
TIMEZONE: *timezone
PHONE_SECTION:
ADD: TRUE # or FALSE
DEVICE_ID_COLUMN: device_id # column name
IGNORED_DEVICE_IDS: []
FITBIT_SECTION:
ADD: TRUE # or FALSE
DEVICE_ID_COLUMN: fitbit_id # column name
IGNORED_DEVICE_IDS: []
```
Then run
```bash
snakemake -j1 create_participants_files
```
=== "CSV file"
Set the following keys in your `config.yaml`.
```yaml
CREATE_PARTICIPANT_FILES:
SOURCE:
TYPE: CSV_FILE
DATABASE_GROUP: ""
CSV_FILE_PATH: "your_path/to_your.csv"
TIMEZONE: *timezone
PHONE_SECTION:
ADD: TRUE # or FALSE
DEVICE_ID_COLUMN: device_id # column name
IGNORED_DEVICE_IDS: []
FITBIT_SECTION:
ADD: TRUE # or FALSE
DEVICE_ID_COLUMN: fitbit_id # column name
IGNORED_DEVICE_IDS: []
```
Your CSV file (`[SOURCE][CSV_FILE_PATH]`) should have the following columns but you can omit any values you don't have on each column:
| Column | Description |
|------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| phone device id | The name of this column has to match `[PHONE_SECTION][DEVICE_ID_COLUMN]`. Separate multiple ids with `;` |
| fitbit device id | The name of this column has to match `[FITBIT_SECTION][DEVICE_ID_COLUMN]`. Separate multiple ids with `;` |
| pid | Unique identifiers with the format pXXX (your participant files will be named with this string |
| platform | Use `android`, `ios` or `multiple` as explained above, separate values with `;` |
| label | A human readable string that is used in reports and visualizations. |
| start_date | A string with format `YYY-MM-DD`. |
| end_date | A string with format `YYY-MM-DD`. |
!!! example
```csv
device_id,pid,label,platform,start_date,end_date,fitbit_id

```
Then run
```bash

```
Day Segments
Day segments (or epochs) are the time windows on which you want to extract behavioral features. For example, you might want to process data on every day, every morning, or only during weekends. RAPIDS offers three categories of day segments that are flexible enough to cover most use cases: frequency (short time windows every day), periodic (arbitrary time windows on any day), and event (arbitrary time windows around events of interest). See also our examples.
=== "Frequency Segments"
These segments are computed on every day and all have the same duration (for example 30 minutes). Set the following keys in your `config.yaml`
```yaml
DAY_SEGMENTS: &day_segments
TYPE: FREQUENCY
FILE: "data/external/your_frequency_segments.csv"
INCLUDE_PAST_PERIODIC_SEGMENTS: FALSE
```
The file pointed by `[DAY_SEGMENTS][FILE]` should have the following format and can only have 1 row.
| Column | Description |
|--------|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
| label | A string that is used as a prefix in the name of your day segments |
| length | An integer representing the duration of your day segments in minutes |
!!! example
```csv
label,length
thirtyminutes,30
```
This configuration will compute 48 day segments for every day when any data from any participant was sensed. For example:
```csv
start_time,length,label
00:00,30,thirtyminutes0000
00:30,30,thirtyminutes0001
01:00,30,thirtyminutes0002
01:30,30,thirtyminutes0003
...
```
=== "Periodic Segments"
These segments can be computed every day, or on specific days of the week, month, quarter, and year. Their minimum duration is 1 minute but they can be as long as you want. Set the following keys in your `config.yaml`.
```yaml
DAY_SEGMENTS: &day_segments
TYPE: PERIODIC
FILE: "data/external/your_periodic_segments.csv"
INCLUDE_PAST_PERIODIC_SEGMENTS: FALSE # or TRUE
```
If `[INCLUDE_PAST_PERIODIC_SEGMENTS]` is set to `TRUE`, RAPIDS will consider instances of your segments back enough in the past as to include the first row of data of each participant. For example, if the first row of data from a participant happened on Saturday March 7th 2020 and the requested segment duration is 7 days starting on every Sunday, the first segment to be considered would start on Sunday March 1st if `[INCLUDE_PAST_PERIODIC_SEGMENTS]` is `TRUE` or on Sunday March 8th if `FALSE`.
The file pointed by `[DAY_SEGMENTS][FILE]` should have the following format and can have multiple rows.
| Column | Description |
|---------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| label | A string that is used as a prefix in the name of your day segments. It has to be **unique** between rows |
| start_time | A string with format `HH:MM:SS` representing the starting time of this segment on any day |
| length | A string representing the length of this segment.It can have one or more of the following strings **`XXD XXH XXM XXS`** to represent days, hours, minutes and seconds. For example `7D 23H 59M 59S` |
| repeats_on | One of the follow options `every_day`, `wday`, `qday`, `mday`, and `yday`. The last four represent a week, quarter, month and year day |
| repeats_value | An integer complementing `repeats_on`. If you set `repeats_on` to `every_day` set this to `0`, otherwise `1-7` represent a `wday` starting from Mondays, `1-31` represent a `mday`, `1-91` represent a `qday`, and `1-366` represent a `yday` |
!!! example
```csv
label,start_time,length,repeats_on,repeats_value
daily,00:00:00,23H 59M 59S,every_day,0
morning,06:00:00,5H 59M 59S,every_day,0
afternoon,12:00:00,5H 59M 59S,every_day,0
evening,18:00:00,5H 59M 59S,every_day,0
night,00:00:00,5H 59M 59S,every_day,0
```
This configuration will create five segments instances (`daily`, `morning`, `afternoon`, `evening`, `night`) on any given day (`every_day` set to 0). The `daily` segment will start at midnight and will last `23:59:59`, the other four segments will start at 6am, 12pm, 6pm, and 12am respectively and last for `05:59:59`.
=== "Event segments"
These segments can be computed before or after an event of interest (defined as any UNIX timestamp). Their minimum duration is 1 minute but they can be as long as you want. The start of each segment can be shifted backwards or forwards from the specified timestamp. Set the following keys in your `config.yaml`.
```yaml
DAY_SEGMENTS: &day_segments
TYPE: EVENT
FILE: "data/external/your_event_segments.csv"
INCLUDE_PAST_PERIODIC_SEGMENTS: FALSE # or TRUE
```
The file pointed by `[DAY_SEGMENTS][FILE]` should have the following format and can have multiple rows.
| Column | Description |
|---------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| label | A string that is used as a prefix in the name of your day segments. If labels are unique, every segment is independent; if two or more segments have the same label, their data will be grouped when computing features like the `most frequent contact` for calls (the most frequent contact will be computed across all these segments) |
| event_timestamp | A UNIX timestamp that represents the moment an event of interest happened (clinical relapse, survey, readmission, etc.). The corresponding day segment will be computed around this moment using `length`, `shift`, and `shift_direction` |
| length | A string representing the length of this segment. It can have one or more of the following keys `XXD XXH XXM XXS` to represent a number of days, hours, minutes, and seconds. For example `7D 23H 59M 59S` |
| shift | A string representing the time shift from `event_timestamp`. It can have one or more of the following keys `XXD XXH XXM XXS` to represent a number of days, hours, minutes and seconds. For example `7D 23H 59M 59S`. Use this value to change the start of a segment with respect to its `event_timestamp`. For example, set this variable to `1H` to create a segment that starts 1 hour from an event of interest (`shift_direction` determines if it's before or after). |
| shift_direction | An integer representing whether the `shift` is before (`-1`) or after (`1`) an `event_timestamp` |
|device_id| The device id (smartphone or fitbit) to whom this segment belongs to. You have to create a line in the event segment file for each event of a participant that you want to analyse|
!!! example
```csv
label,event_timestamp,length,shift,shift_direction,device_id
stress1,1587661220000,1H,5M,1,a748ee1a-1d0b-4ae9-9074-279a2b6ba524
stress2,1587747620000,4H,4H,-1,a748ee1a-1d0b-4ae9-9074-279a2b6ba524
stress3,1587906020000,3H,5M,1,a748ee1a-1d0b-4ae9-9074-279a2b6ba524
stress4,1584291600000,7H,4H,-1,a748ee1a-1d0b-4ae9-9074-279a2b6ba524
stress5,1588172420000,9H,5M,-1,a748ee1a-1d0b-4ae9-9074-279a2b6ba524
mood,1587661220000,1H,0,0,a748ee1a-1d0b-4ae9-9074-279a2b6ba524
mood,1587747620000,1D,0,0,a748ee1a-1d0b-4ae9-9074-279a2b6ba524
mood,1587906020000,7D,0,0,a748ee1a-1d0b-4ae9-9074-279a2b6ba524
```
This example will create eight segments for a single participant (`a748ee1a...`), five independent `stressX` segments with various lengths (1,4,3,7, and 9 hours). Segments `stress1`, `stress3`, and `stress5` are shifted forwards by 5 minutes and `stress2` and `stress4` are shifted backwards by 4 hours (that is, if the `stress4` event happened on March 15th at 1pm EST (`1584291600000`), the day segment will start on that day at 9am and end at 4pm).
The three `mood` segments are 1 hour, 1 day and 7 days long and have no shift. In addition, these `mood` segments are grouped together, meaning that although RAPIDS will compute features on each one of them, some necessary information to compute a few of such features will be extracted from all three segments, for example the phone contact that called a participant the most or the location clusters visited by a participant.
Segment Examples
Device Data Source Configuration
You might need to modify the following config keys in your config.yaml depending on what devices your participants used and where you are storing your data. You can ignore [PHONE_DATA_CONFIGURATION] or [FITBIT_DATA_CONFIGURATION] if you are not working with either devices.
=== "Phone"
The relevant `config.yaml` section looks like this by default:
```yaml
PHONE_DATA_CONFIGURATION:
SOURCE:
TYPE: DATABASE
DATABASE_GROUP: *database_group
DEVICE_ID_COLUMN: device_id # column name
TIMEZONE:
TYPE: SINGLE # SINGLE (MULTIPLE support coming soon)
VALUE: *timezone
```
**Parameters for `[PHONE_DATA_CONFIGURATION]`**
| Key | Description |
|---------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `[SOURCE] [TYPE]` | Only `DATABASE` is supported (phone data will be pulled from a database) |
| `[SOURCE] [DATABASE_GROUP]` | `*database_group` points to the value defined before in [Database credentials](#database-credentials) |
| `[SOURCE] [DEVICE_ID_COLUMN]` | A column that contains strings that uniquely identify smartphones. For data collected with AWARE this is usually `device_id` |
| `[TIMEZONE] [TYPE]` | Only `SINGLE` is supported for now |
| `[TIMEZONE] [VALUE]` | `*timezone` points to the value defined before in [Timezone of your study](#timezone-of-your-study) |
=== "Fitbit"
The relevant `config.yaml` section looks like this by default:
```yaml
FITBIT_DATA_CONFIGURATION:
SOURCE:
TYPE: DATABASE # DATABASE or FILES (set each [FITBIT_SENSOR][TABLE] attribute with a table name or a file path accordingly)
COLUMN_FORMAT: JSON # JSON or PLAIN_TEXT
DATABASE_GROUP: *database_group
DEVICE_ID_COLUMN: device_id # column name
TIMEZONE:
TYPE: SINGLE # Fitbit devices don't support time zones so we read this data in the timezone indicated by VALUE
VALUE: *timezone
```
**Parameters for For `[FITBIT_DATA_CONFIGURATION]`**
| Key | Description |
|------------------------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `[SOURCE]` `[TYPE]` | `DATABASE` or `FILES` (set each `[FITBIT_SENSOR]` `[TABLE]` attribute accordingly with a table name or a file path) |
| `[SOURCE]` `[COLUMN_FORMAT]` | `JSON` or `PLAIN_TEXT`. Column format of the source data. If you pulled your data directly from the Fitbit API the column containing the sensor data will be in `JSON` format |
| `[SOURCE]` `[DATABASE_GROUP]` | `*database_group` points to the value defined before in [Database credentials](#database-credentials). Only used if `[TYPE]` is `DATABASE` . |
| `[SOURCE]` `[DEVICE_ID_COLUMN]` | A column that contains strings that uniquely identify Fitbit devices. |
| `[TIMEZONE]` `[TYPE]` | Only `SINGLE` is supported (Fitbit devices always store data in local time). |
| `[TIMEZONE]` `[VALUE]` | `*timezone` points to the value defined before in [Timezone of your study](#timezone-of-your-study) |
Sensor and Features to Process
Finally, you need to modify the config.yaml section of the sensors you want to extract behavioral features from. All sensors follow the same naming nomenclature (DEVICE_SENSOR) and parameter structure which we explain in the Behavioral Features Introduction.
