PAAL ADL Accelerometry dataset v2.0

<p>The PAAL ADL Accelerometry dataset (v2.0) has been acquired with a high-quality wearable multisensor device, the <a href="https://www.empatica.com/research/e4/">Empatica E4</a>. In this dataset, among the signals collected by the sensors embedded in the Empatica E4, only the acceleration has been extracted to monitor the users performing different activities of daily living (ADLs). To promote the real-life acquisition procedure, subjects acted in their natural environment, with no instructions about how and for how long to perform each activity (other than a minimum time). The device was worn on the dominant hand.</p> <p>The dataset includes <strong>24 different ADLs</strong> performed using real objects. Each activity was repeated between 3 and 5 times (on average) by <strong>52 healthy subjects</strong>, characterized by a gender balance <strong>(26 women and 26 men)</strong>, and a large age range (between 18 and 77 years, mean = 44.08 years and standard deviation = 17.06 years).</p> <p>The PAAL ADL Accelerometry dataset (v2.0) is composed of three files:</p> <ul> <li>users.csv: each line contains (participant id, gender, age) of each user performing the ADLs in the dataset. <em>N.B: gender labels are &#39;man&#39; and &#39;woman&#39;</em>.</li> <li>ADLs.csv: each line contains (ADL id, ADL name)</li> <li>data.zip: folder with 6,072 files of accelerometer data of users performing ADLs. The name of each file indicates the name of the ADL, the user id and the repetition. Each row in the files represents the continuous gravitational force (g) applied to each of the three spacial dimensions (x, y, and z). The scale is limited to [-2g, +2g]. The sampling frequency is 32 Hz, with a resolution of 0.015 g (8 bit).

Data from: Energetic fitness: field metabolic rates assessed via 3D accelerometry complement conventional fitness metrics

1) Evaluating the fitness of organisms is an essential step towards understanding their responses to environmental change. Connections between energy expenditure and fitness have been postulated for nearly a century. However, testing this premise among wild animals is constrained by difficulties in measuring energy expenditure while simultaneously monitoring conventional fitness metrics such as survival and reproductive output. 2) We addressed this issue by exploring the functional links between field metabolic rate (FMR), body condition, sex, age and reproductive performance in a wild population. 3) We deployed 3D accelerometers on 115 Adélie penguins (Pygoscelis adeliae) during four breeding seasons at one of the largest colonies of this species, Cape Crozier, on Ross Island, Antarctica. The demography of this population has been studied for the past 18 years. From accelerometry recordings, collected for birds of known age and breeding history, we determined the vector of the dynamic body acceleration (VeDBA) and used it as a proxy for FMR. 4) This allowed us to demonstrate relationships between FMR, a breeding quality index (BQI), and body condition. Notably, we found a significant quadratic relationship between mean VeDBA during foraging and BQI for experienced breeders, and individuals in better body condition showed lower rates of energy expenditure. 5) We conclude that using FMR as a fitness component complementary to more conventional fitness metrics will yield greater understanding of evolutionary and conservation physiology.

CMT1A-BioStampNPoint2023: Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1A accelerometry dataset from three wearable sensor study

<p>The CMT1A-BioStampNPoint2023 dataset provides data from a wearable sensor accelerometry study conducted for studying gait, balance, and activity in 15 individuals with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease Type 1A (CMT1A). In addition to individuals with CMT1A, the dataset also includes data for 15 controls that also went through the same in-clinic study protocol as the CMT1A participants with a substantial fraction (9) of the controls also participating in the in-home study protocol. For the CMT1A participants, data is provided for 15 participants for the baseline visit and associated home recording duration and, additionally, for a subset of 12 of these participants data is also provided for a 12-month longitudinal visit and associated home recording duration. For controls, no longitudinal data is provided as none was recorded. The data were acquired using lightweight MC 10 BioStamp NPoint sensors (MC 10 Inc, Lexington, MA), three of which were attached to each participant for gathering data over a roughly one day interval. For additional details, see the description in the "README.md" included with the dataset.</p>

Data from: The secret life of ground squirrels: accelerometry reveals sex-dependent plasticity in above-ground activity

The sexes differ in how and when they allocate energy towards reproduction, but how this influences phenotypic plasticity in daily activity patterns is unclear. Here, we use collar-mounted light loggers and triaxial accelerometers to examine factors that affect time spent above ground and overall dynamic body acceleration (ODBA), an index of activity-specific energy expenditure, across the active season of free-living, semi-fossorial arctic ground squirrels (Urocitellus parryii). We found high day-to-day variability in time spent above ground and ODBA with most of the variance explained by environmental conditions known to affect thermal exchange. In both years, females spent more time below ground compared with males during parturition and early lactation; however, this difference was fourfold larger in the second year, possibly, because females were in better body condition. Daily ODBA positively correlated with time spent above ground in both sexes, but females were more active per unit time above ground. Consequently, daily ODBA did not differ between the sexes when females were early in lactation, even though females were above ground three to six fewer hours each day. Further, on top of having the additional burden of milk production, ODBA data indicate females also had fragmented rest patterns and were more active during late lactation. Our results indicate that sex differences in reproductive requirements can have a substantial influence on activity patterns, but the size of this effect may be dependent on capital resources accrued during gestation.

Data from: Combined use of GPS and accelerometry reveals fine scale three-dimensional foraging behaviour in the short-tailed shearwater

Determining the foraging behaviour of free-ranging marine animals is fundamental for assessing their habitat use and how they may respond to changes in the environment. However, despite recent advances in bio-logging technology, collecting information on both at-sea movement patterns and activity budgets still remains difficult in small pelagic seabird species due to the constraints of instrument size. The short-tailed shearwater, the most abundant seabird species in Australia (ca 23 million individuals), is a highly pelagic procellariiform. Despite its ecological importance to the region, almost nothing is known about its at-sea behaviour, in particular, its foraging activity. Using a combination of GPS and tri-axial accelerometer data-loggers, the fine scale three-dimensional foraging behaviour of 10 breeding individuals from two colonies was investigated. Five at-sea behaviours were identified: (1) resting on water, (2) flapping flight, (3) gliding flight, (4) foraging (i.e., surface foraging and diving events), and (5) taking-off. There were substantial intra- and inter- individual variations in activity patterns, with individuals spending on average 45.8% (range: 17.1–70.0%) of time at sea resting on water and 18.2% (range: 2.3–49.6%) foraging. Individuals made 76.4 ± 65.3 dives (range: 8–237) per foraging trip (mean duration 9.0 ± 1.9 s), with dives also recorded during night-time. With the continued miniaturisation of recording devices, the use of combined data-loggers could provide us with further insights into the foraging behaviour of small procellariiforms, helping to better understand interactions with their prey.
