Automated home-cage behavioural phenotyping of mice.
Neurobehavioural analysis of mouse phenotypes requires the monitoring of mouse behaviour over long periods of time. In this study, we describe a trainable computer vision system enabling the automated analysis of complex mouse behaviours. We provide software and an extensive manually annotated video database used for training and testing the system. Our system performs on par with human scoring...
متن کاملHome-cage Automated Cognitive Phenotyping in Mice
However, the vast repertoire of mouse models is not currently paralleled by a correspondingly rich set of phenotyping methods. A “phenotype” can be defined as any functional or anatomical expression of the organism’s genotype and its interactions with the environment. Phenotypic assessment is required to build any link between genes and mental functions, but classical research on mental health ...

متن کاملAutomated Operant Conditioning in the Mouse Home Cage
Recent advances in neuroimaging and genetics have made mice an advantageous animal model for studying the neurophysiology of sensation, cognition, and locomotion. A key benefit of mice is that they provide a large population of test subjects for behavioral screening. Reflex-based assays of hearing in mice, such as the widely used acoustic startle response, are less accurate than operant conditi...
متن کاملFear Conditioning in an Automated Home Cage (DualCage) Environment
Fear conditioning is an important test in behavioral neuroscience to investigate the neural systems and molecular basis of various aspects of emotional learning across a wide range of species [1]. Dysfunction of the fear circuits is assumed to underlie mechanisms of affective disorders and is frequently investigated in rodent models. Traditional fear conditioning methods require frequent handli...
