CaT-z: 3D Tracking and Automatic Classification of Rodent Behavior

In behavioral neuroscience, analyzing animal behavior is a key component to many experiments, but relying on manually scoring behaviors pose issues in reproducibility. In resolution, most have turned to computerized video-analysis systems that combine 2D images with...
