The behavior of individuals determines the strength and outcome of ecological interactions,
which drive population, community, and ecosystem organization. Bio-logging, such as …

In this review, we discuss the emerging field of computational behavioral analysis—the use
of modern methods from computer science and engineering to quantitatively measure …

We present a machine learning–based system for automatically computing interpretable,
quantitative measures of animal behavior. Through our interactive system, users encode …

Visual projection neurons (VPNs) provide an anatomical connection between early visual
processing and higher brain regions. Here we characterize lobula columnar (LC) cells, a …

Originally a genetic model organism, the experimental use of Drosophila melanogaster has
grown to include quantitative behavioral analyses, sophisticated perturbations of neuronal …

Coordinated walking in vertebrates and multi-legged invertebrates such as Drosophila
melanogaster requires a complex neural network coupled to sensory feedback. An …

After discovering a small drop of food, hungry flies exhibit a peculiar behavior in which they
repeatedly stray from, but then return to, the newly discovered resource. To study this …

Recent developments in machine vision methods for automatic, quantitative analysis of
social behavior have immensely improved both the scale and level of resolution with which …

Internal states can profoundly alter the behavior of animals. A quantitative understanding of
the behavioral changes upon metabolic challenges is key to a mechanistic dissection of how …

A substantial portion of our sensory experience happens during active behaviors such as
walking around or paying attention. How do sensory systems work during such behaviors …
