A Primer on Motion Capture with Deep Learning: Principles, Pitfalls and Perspectives
Alexander Mathis, Steffen Schneider, Jessy Lauer +1
Extracting behavioral measurements non-invasively from video is stymied by the fact that it is a hard computational problem. Recent advances in deep learning have tremendously adva…
Deep learning tools for the measurement of animal behavior in neuroscience
Mackenzie W. Mathis, Alexander Mathis
Recent advances in computer vision have made accurate, fast and robust measurement of animal behavior a reality. In the past years powerful tools specifically designed to aid the m…
Pretraining boosts out-of-domain robustness for pose estimation
Alexander Mathis, Thomas Biasi, Steffen Schneider +4
Neural networks are highly effective tools for pose estimation. However, as in other computer vision tasks, robustness to out-of-domain data remains a challenge, especially for sma…
Markerless tracking of user-defined features with deep learning
Alexander Mathis, Pranav Mamidanna, Taiga Abe +4
Quantifying behavior is crucial for many applications in neuroscience. Videography provides easy methods for the observation and recording of animal behavior in diverse settings, y…
