Open field test for circular arena #5

Closed ghost closed 5 years ago

ghost commented 5 years ago

I'm interested in assessing the behaviour of animals by open field test in a circular arena.Is it possible to track their movements using animal-tracking in a circular arena? It would also be useful in Morris Water Maze.

I guess current version will misdetect the "floor", but you are free to fit the area of arena by bounding box using mouse pointer. Please try it and reopen the Issue in case of errors.

And remember that an animal must be as contrast as possible to water color of the maze. I'm planning to replace object detector with Yolo since current version of detector is written in old-school style and is extremely unstable.
