The scientific system for the analysis of rhythmic phenomena, time series analysis and forecasting

New version 2020 : Time Series Analysis - Cosinor 8.0 Lab View January 2020 software

Time Series Analysis - Cosinor 8.0 is compatible with BodyCAP's eCelsius Medical, Performance and eTact systems (BodyCAP Solutions)

Gaping is the phenomenon of partially opening shells
Figure 1: Gaping is the phenomenon of partially opening shells which is seen in some shellfish (Butterworth filter,1,000 data points). The period is 24 hours, IMEDMAR, Valencia, Spain.
The scientific software for the rhythms analysis, time series analysis and forecasting.

This version, which has been tested and improved, offers many new features...

It combines the Exploratory Data Analysis approach (Tukey) applied to the graphical analysis of data in rhythmic phenomena and time series:

Scatter plot, run sequence plot, lag plot, autocorrelation plot, Normality plot with powerful numerical statistical tests (K-S test, Q test, KW test, and so on.)

This version allows researchers to use the entire range of "Cosinor" methodology, Cosinor analysis (Nelson, Bingham, Halberg) and the most complete (Confidence ellipses, modelisation, chronograms, polargrams, study of residuals, complete calculation of chronobiological, chronobiometrical or chronoeconometric parameters)

It also provides the most powerful different spectral analysis and periodograms :
Jenkins and Watts, Lomb and Scargle (Scargle), Schwarzenberg-Cerny, Fourier, Burg MESA, Halberg, Gouthière : Reverse Elliptic, "Percent rhythm" to find periods.

Features are offered such as :

Complex demodulations plots, transformation of previous data (log, arcsin and so on), removing linear or polynomial trend, filters, variance homogeneity plot of residuals, the graphs of Normality of residuals and so on.

Data
The nature of the data is not specific and can be of varied origin : biological, physical, economic and so on. Data can be imported in the software editor, from Microsoft Excel. In the field, for example of actimetric studies, large data sets, e.g. more than 65,500 data points can be treated. The software also works well on short or simple data sets.
