I spent the day manually labeling frames for #DeepLabCut ( #MachineLearning model to track #animals in videos).
Incredibly mind-numbing, but hopefully my new model will be good enough to work through the terabytes of videos.
If the model can actually track up to 18 piglets, that would be amazing!

From @nvladimus : "We have opened the #mesoSPIM official User Forum" at https://forum.image.sc/tag/mesospim alongside #Fiji #ImageJ #ilastik #BiaPy #napari #DeepLabCut and many other open source softwares for bioimage informatics.
@choldgraf visited the #deeplabcut team @TrackingActions 's lab, EPFL, in early August to learn how they used open-source tools to share work. Learn how a @mystmarkdown mini-hackathon facilitated learning and accelerated contributions to the project https://2i2c.org/blog/2024/deeplabcut-myst-hackathon/ 📖

Seen on the #NeuroMethods slack:

Any suggestions for algorithms to track pupil in mice? (Not #DeepLabCut )

Good morning #ISOT2024!
Today's the last poster session of the meeting @[email protected], so come and stop by to chat.

I'll try to be around during most breaks!

If you're interested in #DeepLabCut (or #MoSeq), definitely come and chat!

I have added a hands-on #tutorial to the Assessing Animal Behavior lecture. The tutorial covers the GUI-based use of #DeepLabCut 💻, a software package for markerless pose estimation of animals 🐭🔍 It’s aimed at #neuroscience students with no or little programming knowledge. Feel free to share it with your students and colleagues ☺️

Hands-on: DeepLabCut

New this week @Nature, Mackenzie and Alexander Mathis (@TrackingActions) were still early in their careers when their #DeepLabCut software created a sensation. Now they’re using it to support other young scientists. 🧪 https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-024-01474-x
DeepLabCut: the motion-tracking tool that went viral

Mackenzie and Alexander Mathis were still early in their careers when their software created a sensation. Now they’re using it to support other young scientists.

Anyone here working on #PoseEstimation #animalbehavior #neuroethology ?

You may be interested in the free and open-source Python 🐍 package I’m currently working on, together with @adamltyson @bd_peri and others.

It’s called movement, and it’s made for analysing the pose tracks produced by pose estimation frameworks, like #DeepLabCut and #SLEAP.

Website: https://movement.neuroinformatics.dev
GitHub: https://github.com/neuroinformatics-unit/movement

It’s still in early development 🏗️ but we appreciate feedback/feature requests.

Well, it's time again: I'm officially looking for a new #PostDoc

Please share far and wide!

My expertise lies in behavioral ecology, focused on mammalian chemical communication. I've also been exploring #DeepLabCut & #MoSeq for automated behavior analysis.

For more info about my research & background, visit my newly revamped website https://tsievert.com/
Shout-out to my friend Ramin at websplash GmbH for the fantastic redesign!

We recently made our lab's handbook for #DeepLabCut public!
It's not finished yet and quite rough on the edges, but you can watch us (well, me) struggle in the process of trying to establish #DeepLabCut in our lab.

The handbook also includes #HowTo.s and scripts to run everything on a HPC cluster.

Long-term aim is to also include guides and scripts for #KeypointMoseq.
