RHRV: Heart Rate Variability Analysis of ECG Data

Allows users to import data files containing heartbeat positions in the most broadly used formats, to remove outliers or points with unacceptable physiological values present in the time series, to plot HRV data, and to perform time domain, frequency domain and nonlinear HRV analysis. See Garcia et al. (2017) <doi:10.1007/978-3-319-65355-6>.
