Quantifies each user-defined behavior#

Computes a range of motion and kinematics parameters for each behavior. The parameters include count, duration, and latency of behavioral incidents, as well as speed, acceleration, distance traveled, and the intensity and vigor of motions during the behaviors. These parameters are output in spreadsheets.

Also provides visualization of analysis results, including annotated videos / images that visually mark each behavior event, temporal raster plots that show every behavior event of every individual overtime.
