Signals of complexity and fragmentation in accelerometer data. by Els Weinans, Jerrald L Rector, Sarah Charman, Renae J Stefanetti, Cecilia Jimenez-Moreno, Gráinne S Gorman, Ingrid van de Leemput, Daniël van As, René Melis, Baziel van Engelen

“…Our results demonstrate that healthy individuals have a higher regularity (indicated by a lower correlation dimension), a higher probability of activity after a period of rest, and a lower probability of a period of rest after a period of activity compared with patients living with Myotonic Dystrophy type I (DM1), a chronic, progressive, complex, multisystem disease. For the correlation dimension, this difference was independent of the average, coefficient of variation and autocorrelation of the activity signals. …”
