Query: Optimizing Rescoring Rules with Interpretable Representations of
  Long-Term Information   Analyzing temporal data (e.g., wearable device data) requires a decision
about how to combine information from the recent and distant past. In the
context of classifying sleep status from actigraphy, Webster's rescoring rules
offer one popular solution based on the long-term patterns in the output of a
moving-window model. Unfortunately, the question of how to optimize rescoring
rules for any given setting has remained unsolved. To address this problem and
expand the possible use cases of rescoring rules, we propose rephrasing these
rules in terms of epoch-specific features. Our features take two general forms:
(1) the time lag between now and the most recent [or closest upcoming] bout of
time spent in a given state, and (2) the length of the most recent [or closest
upcoming] bout of time spent in a given state. Given any initial moving window
model, these features can be defined recursively, allowing for straightforward
optimization of rescoring rules. Joint optimization of the moving window model
and the subsequent rescoring rules can also be implemented using gradient-based
optimization software, such as Tensorflow. Beyond binary classification
problems (e.g., sleep-wake), the same approach can be applied to summarize
long-term patterns for multi-state classification problems (e.g., sitting,
walking, or stair climbing). We find that optimized rescoring rules improve the
performance of sleep-wake classifiers, achieving accuracy comparable to that of
certain neural network architectures.
