Automatic Behavioral Quantification Pipeline
How to automatically analyze behavior video? DeepLabCut is a powerful tool to rapidly1 train a neural network (based on ResNet) to track keypoints on movement videos, esp. those of moving human or animals. Thus this is a game changing tool for all kind of behavior quantification for neuroscience and psychology researchers (can be applied to nearly any behavioral science topic, e.g. motor learning, motor control, facial expression, social interaction…). The workflow is relatively simple and it scarcely takes time after the network have been trained, and the video analysis can be done automatically. Because of this it’s really favorable to the reserchers doing long term ecological video recording.
