In this paper we describe a software package for developing heart rate variability analysis. This package, called RHRV, is a third party extension for the open source statistical environment R, and can be freely downloaded from the R-CRAN repository. We review the state of the art of software related to the analysis of heart rate variability (HRV). Based upon this review, we motivate the development of an open source software platform which can be used for developing new algorithms for studying HRV or for performing clinical experiments. In particular, we show how the RHRV package greatly simplifies and accelerates the work of the computer scientist or medical specialist in the HRV field. We illustrate the utility of our package with practical examples.
在本文中，我们描述了一个用于开发心率变异性分析的软件包。这个名为 RHRV 的软件包是开源统计环境 R 的第三方扩展，可以从 R-CRAN 存储库中免费下载。我们回顾了与心率变异性（HRV）分析相关的软件的最新发展。基于这一回顾，我们推动开发一个开源软件平台，该平台可用于开发研究 HRV 的新算法或进行临床实验。特别是，我们展示了 RHRV 包如何极大地简化和加速了 HRV 领域的计算机科学家或医学专家的工作。我们用实际例子来说明我们的软件包的实用性。
