title: 'CircaCP: Sleep and Circadian Metrics Estimation from Actigraphy Data'
version: 0.1.2
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.CircaCP
abstract: A generic sleep–wake cycle detection algorithm for analyzing unlabeled actigraphy
  data. The algorithm has been validated against event markers using data from the
  Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA) Sleep study, and its methodological
  details are described in Chen and Sun (2024) <https://doi.org/10.1098/rsos.231468>.
  The package provides functions to estimate sleep metrics (e.g., sleep and wake onset
  times) and circadian rhythm metrics (e.g., mesor, phasor, interdaily stability,
  intradaily variability), as well as tools for screening actigraphy quality, fitting
  cosinor models, and performing parametric change point detection. The workflow can
  also be used to segment long actigraphy sequences into regularized structures for
  physical activity research.
