Leaving flatland: Advances in 3D behavioral measurement
Animals move in three dimensions (3D). Thus, 3D measurement is necessary to report the
true kinematics of animal movement. Existing 3D measurement techniques draw on …

The Mouse Action Recognition System (MARS) software pipeline for automated analysis of social behaviors in mice
The study of naturalistic social behavior requires quantification of animals' interactions. This
is generally done through manual annotation—a highly time-consuming and tedious …

Multi-animal 3D social pose estimation, identification and behaviour embedding with a few-shot learning framework
The quantification of animal social behaviour is an essential step to reveal brain functions
and psychiatric disorders during interaction phases. While deep learning-based approaches …

The Caltech Fish Counting dataset: a benchmark for multiple-object tracking and counting
Abstract We present the Caltech Fish Counting Dataset (CFC), a large-scale dataset for
detecting, tracking, and counting fish in sonar videos. We identify sonar videos as a rich …

Self-supervised keypoint discovery in behavioral videos
We propose a method for learning the posture and structure of agents from unlabelled
behavioral videos. Starting from the observation that behaving agents are generally the …

Mixed strategy Nash equilibrium for crowd navigation
Robots navigating in crowded areas should negotiate free space with humans rather than
fully controlling collision avoidance, as this can lead to freezing behavior. Game theory …

BKinD-3D: self-supervised 3D keypoint discovery from multi-view videos
Quantifying motion in 3D is important for studying the behavior of humans and other
animals, but manual pose annotations are expensive and time-consuming to obtain. Self …

Simple Behavioral Analysis (SimBA) as a platform for explainable machine learning in behavioral neuroscience
The study of complex behaviors is often challenging when using manual annotation due to
the absence of quantifiable behavioral definitions and the subjective nature of behavioral …
