[R] Polysomnographic data analysis with R?

[Charles Novaes de Santana]

Dear Jim,

Thank you for your response. Yes, it is the European Data Format you
mention. Actually we can read the data correctly, but I was wondering if
there is any package that can identify different sleep phases automatically
based on the data. I supposed such a package does not exist, it is really
difficult to automatize the identification of sleep phases based only on
data, but I asked here just in case.

Thanks for your attention!

Best,

Charles
