Abstract

Typical methods for generating and analysing tracking data for animals such as Drosophila require idealized experimental conditions that are frequently difficult, expensive, or undesirable to replicate in the lab. In this chapter, we describe and implement methods for improving robustness in nonideal conditions. Our method involves an initial processing step in which tracks are constructed from noisy video data, ...
