报告题目: Mouse behavior analysis

主要内容：

    Manual measurement of mouse behavior is highly labor intensive and prone to error. This investigation aimed to efficiently and accurately recognize individual mouse behaviors in action videos. We built a new system inspired by the recent successful application of Fisher Vectors (FV).  The novelty of our proposed approach was: (i) our method is the first one to combine FV and neural network for recognizing mouse behaviors in videos, (ii) it exploits contextual features from spatio-temporal interest points, leading to enhanced performance, and (iii) location information for mice is extracted from spatio-temporal interest points instead of tracking or detecting the object. We evaluated our method against the database of Jhuang et al. at MIT and the results show that our method outperforms current state-of-the-art approaches.
