A semi-quantitative method to denote generic physical activity phenotypes from long-term accelerometer data--the ATLAS index.

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Physical activity is inversely correlated to morbidity and mortality risk. Large cohort studies use wearable accelerometer devices to measure physical activity objectively, providing data potentially relevant to identify different activity patterns and to correlate these to health-related outcome measures. A method to compute relevant characteristics of such data not only with regard to duration and...
