## Introduction to Python | ||
The aim of the course is to introduce basic concepts of programming in Python, and establish a community of Python users. It is a hands-on course, in which we will guide you | ||
through the process of writing your first Python script and teach you some best practices. | ||
|
||
The course will run over two days, 2.5-3h per day with a break in between. | ||
|
||
Instructors: Igor Tatarnikov, Sofía Miñano | ||
|

|
||
|
||
**Day 2** | ||
|
||

||
## Data Management and Sharing | ||
|
||
This course will introduce best-practices in neuroscience data management | ||
and cover recent standardisation initiatives. The primary take-away from this course | ||
will be to leave with a strong schema in mind for clean organisation of experimental data. | ||
|
||
Full details can be found on the [course webpage](https://software-skills.neuroinformatics.dev/courses/data-management.html) | ||
|
||
## Version control and software development best practices | ||
|
||
The aims of the course are | ||
* to learn how to keep track of changes to your code with Git and GitHub, | ||
* to learn how to work with others on code | ||
* and to get an initial idea of how structure, document and test your code. | ||

## Video-based analysis of animal behaviour | ||
|
||
This course will introduce the theory and practice of tracking animals in videos to quantify their behaviour. | ||
Participants will get to train pose estimation models | ||
with [SLEAP](https://sleap.ai/), analyse pose tracks | ||
with [movement](https://movement.neuroinformatics.dev/), and extract behavioural syllables with [keypoint-moseq](https://keypoint-moseq.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html). | ||
|
||
Full details can be found on the [course webpage](video-analysis). | ||
|
||
Instructors: Niko Sirmpilatze, Chang Huan Lo, Sofía Miñano | ||
|
||
## Linux and high-performance computing | ||
This course will introduce some basic principles of using Linux, and high-performance computing in general. Most of | ||
the course will be centered around learning to run a specific workflow (pose estimation) on the SWC HPC system. | ||
|
||
Full details can be found on the [course webpage](hpc-behaviour). | ||
|
||
Instructors: Niko Sirmpilatze, Igor Tatarnikov, Adam Tyson | ||
|
||
## General microscopy | ||
This course will introduce some basic concepts about microscopy (optics, fluroescence etc.) to help better understand | ||
the following course on histology analysis. | ||
|
||
Instructors: Rob Campbell, Adam Tyson, Alessandro Felder, Igor Tatarnikov | ||
|

# Video-based analysis of animal behaviour | ||
|
||
## Overview | ||
This will be an introductory course on analysing animal behaviour from video data. The course will cover: | ||
|
||
- Motivation | ||
- Overview of animal tracking methods and terminology | ||
- Pose estimation and tracking | ||
- Overview of existing tools | ||
- Labeling animal body parts | ||
- Training a model | ||
- Predicting poses | ||
- Evaluating performance | ||
- Analysing pose tracks with Python | ||
- Loading and saving data | ||
- Filtering/smoothing | ||
- Visualising tracks | ||
- Time spent in regions of interest | ||
- Overview of animal tracking methods and terminology. | ||
- **Pose estimation and tracking with [SLEAP](https://sleap.ai/)**. This includes hands-on practice with training a pose estimation model, evaluating its performance, and using it to predict pose tracks in new videos. | ||
- **Analysing pose tracks with [movement](https://movement.neuroinformatics.dev/)**. This includes loading the predicted pose tracks in Python, filtering and smoothing them, computing kinematic variables, and visualising the results. | ||
- **Extracting behavioural syllables with [keypoint-moseq](https://keypoint-moseq.readthedocs.io/en/latest/index.html)**. | ||
|
||
:::{note} | ||
Training and prediction with pose estimation models are | ||
GPU-intensive tasks. | ||
Since many students will not have access to a GPU on their own machine, | ||
we highly recommend that they also attend the follow-up course on | ||
[Running pose estimation on the SWC HPC system](./hpc-behaviour). | ||
This will cover how to run pose estimation at scale, using the GPUs of the SWC HPC cluster. | ||
