Abstract excerpt
Automated systems for recording and analyzing behavior have many applications for the study of neurobiology in Caenorhabditis elegans. In particular, machine-based approaches allow for precise quantitative definitions of behavioral phenotypes that have traditionally been subjectively described by individual observers. Automated systems also facilitate the analysis of behaviors that occur over long time scales or...
