SUMMARY:AI for Researchers: Animal Motion Tracking with DeepLabCut (In-person)
LOCATION:Big Ten Room, Norris University Center
DESCRIPTION:Motion tracking is a powerful tool for understanding and analyzing animal behavior. DeepLabCut is a state-of-the-art, open-source, AI software tool designed for highly accurate pose estimation and motion tracking of animals (and even humans) in video data. This hands-on workshop will introduce participants to the fundamentals of DeepLabCut: you will learn to install and configure DeepLabCut, get acquainted with the software interface, label video data to train a model, and extract pose data from videos. Attendees will also learn how to select model parameters, fine-tune training settings, and evaluate model performance. By the end of this workshop, participants will have a strong foundation in using DeepLabCut for animal behavior analysis, and the confidence to apply it to their own research questions. \nPrerequisites: Basic familiarity with Python.\n\nPiP URL: https://planitpurple.northwestern.edu/event/629200
