Behavioral toxicological tracking analysis of Drosophila larvae exposed to polystyrene microplastics based on machine learning.

Journal of environmental management
Microplastics, as a pivotal concern within plastic pollution, have sparked widespread apprehension due to their ubiquitous presence. Recent research indicates that these minuscule plastic particles may exert discernible effects on the locomotor capab...

How Lazy Are Pet Cats Really? Using Machine Learning and Accelerometry to Get a Glimpse into the Behaviour of Privately Owned Cats in Different Households.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Surprisingly little is known about how the home environment influences the behaviour of pet cats. This study aimed to determine how factors in the home environment (e.g., with or without outdoor access, urban vs. rural, presence of a child) and the s...

Neonatal brain inflammation enhances methamphetamine-induced reinstated behavioral sensitization in adult rats analyzed with explainable machine learning.

Neurochemistry international
Neonatal brain inflammation produced by intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) results in long-lasting brain dopaminergic injury and motor disturbances in adult rats. The goal of the present work is to investigate the effect of ...

Machine learning methods for genomic prediction of cow behavioral traits measured by automatic milking systems in North American Holstein cattle.

Journal of dairy science
Identifying genome-enabled methods that provide more accurate genomic prediction is crucial when evaluating complex traits such as dairy cow behavior. In this study, we aimed to compare the predictive performance of traditional genomic prediction met...

A transdisciplinary view on curiosity beyond linguistic humans: animals, infants, and artificial intelligence.

Biological reviews of the Cambridge Philosophical Society
Curiosity is a core driver for life-long learning, problem-solving and decision-making. In a broad sense, curiosity is defined as the intrinsically motivated acquisition of novel information. Despite a decades-long history of curiosity research and t...

A systematic review of the development and application of home cage monitoring in laboratory mice and rats.

BMC biology
BACKGROUND: Traditionally, in biomedical animal research, laboratory rodents are individually examined in test apparatuses outside of their home cages at selected time points. However, the outcome of such tests can be influenced by various factors an...

How do you do the things that you do? Ethological approach to the description of robot behaviour.

Biologia futura
The detailed description of behaviour of the interacting parties is becoming more and more important in human-robot interaction (HRI), especially in social robotics (SR). With the rise in the number of publications, there is a substantial need for th...

WormSwin: Instance segmentation of C. elegans using vision transformer.

Scientific reports
The possibility to extract motion of a single organism from video recordings at a large-scale provides means for the quantitative study of its behavior, both individual and collective. This task is particularly difficult for organisms that interact w...

PMotion: an advanced markerless pose estimation approach based on novel deep learning framework used to reveal neurobehavior.

Journal of neural engineering
The evaluation of animals' motion behavior has played a vital role in neuromuscular biomedical research and clinical diagnostics, which reflects the changes caused by neuromodulation or neurodamage. Currently, the existing animal pose estimation meth...

Multi-Object Tracking in Heterogeneous environments (MOTHe) for animal video recordings.

PeerJ
Aerial imagery and video recordings of animals are used for many areas of research such as animal behaviour, behavioural neuroscience and field biology. Many automated methods are being developed to extract data from such high-resolution videos. Most...
