An Automated Approach to the Quantitation of Vocalizations and Vocal Learning in the Songbird
2017-07-20
Abstract excerpt
Studies of learning mechanisms critically depend on the ability to accurately assess learning outcomes. This assessment can be impeded by the often complex, multidimensional nature of behavior. We present a novel, automated approach to evaluating imitative learning that is founded in information theory. Conceptually, our approach estimates the amount of information present in a reference behavior that is absent fr...
