Data Augmentation for Automated Adaptive Rodent Training
Fully optimized automation of behavioral training protocols for lab animals like rodents has long been a coveted goal for researchers. It is an otherwise labor-intensive and time-consuming process that demands close interaction between the animal and the researcher. In this work, we used a data-driven approach to optimize the way rodents are trained in labs. In pursuit of our goal, we looked at data augmentation, a technique that scales well in data-poor environments. Using data augmentation, we built several artificial rodent models, which in turn would be used to build an efficient and automatic trainer. Then we developed a novel similarity metric based on the action probability distribution to measure the behavioral resemblance of our models to that of real rodents.

A deep learning based tool for automatic brain extraction from functional magnetic resonance images in rodents
Removing skull artifacts from functional magnetic images (fMRI) is a well understood and frequently encountered problem. Because the fMRI field has grown mostly due to human studies, many new tools were developed to hand…
