Keystroke_Dynamics_Gen

This code was inspired by the one located in https://github.com/nileshprasad137/keystroke-dynamics-datagen but some immprovements were done.

Improvements

• Bug fixing:
  • Some mistakes in the logic of the code were found and fixed
  • Append output dataset fixed to create CSV output.
• Dead code: Some lines of dead code were found and removed
• Code refactoring: Original code uses one single script to do all the tasks. The refactoring aimed to divide the script in functions in order to put them inside a Class. That brings the oportunity to create objects of that class to invoke its functions and make the integration with other apps easier.
• New features:
  • Capability to set a custom quantity of sessions and reps per session was added. The original dataset is set with 8 sessions and 50 reps per session.
  • Fields subject (user), sessionid and rep included in the output dataset.
