Detecting accelerometer non-wear periods using change in acceleration combined with rate-of-change in temperature

Abstract Background Accelerometery is commonly used to estimate physical activity, sleep, and sedentary behavior. In free-living conditions, periods of device removal (non-wear) can lead to misclassification of behavior with consequences for research outcomes and clinical decision making. Common met...
