AnimalTA : A Step-by-Step Tutorial
(2025) In Methods in Molecular Biology 2915. p.315-331- Abstract
Tracking animal displacement on video recording is a frequently used method in ethology, behavioral ecology, and neuroscience to characterize animal behavior in an automated and objective way. We propose here a quick-start tutorial of AnimalTA, a video tracking program, which aims to provide a free, open-source, and user-friendly tool for the scientific community. The strength of this software resides in its adaptability to various video-recording conditions, the possibility to run analysis and extract personalized data, and its simplicity of use.
