FERAL: A Video-Understanding System for Direct Video-to-Behavior Mapping Animal behavior unfolds continuously in time, yet quantitative analyses often require segmenting it into discrete, interpretable states. Although manual annotation can achieve this, it remains slow, s...

Peter Skovorodnikov and I are excited to present FERAL: a new video-understanding toolkit that maps raw video directly to behavior, no pose estimation required.
It works across species, from lab to field, and even in collective systems. (🧵1/n)

New episode of our podcast is out!

In this episode, @yguenzel.bsky.social and Inga Petelski will tell us all about how shy, solitary locusts can transform into hungry, gregarious ones who are ready to march with millions to search for the next meal.
