Data for Wall following in Xenopus laevis

dataset
posted on 2017-04-18, 14:34 authored by Sara HänziSara Hänzi, Hans Straka
These data are the basis of the manuscript 'Wall following in Xenopus laevis' which can be found on bioRxiv (see link below).

The CSV file contains a table with one row per video of an animal freely swimming in a square tank for 10 min. Filename, the animal's developmental stage, its length, and parameters of the video are indicated in the different columns; the 'primary' column indicates the videos of animals in the 'standard condition' (see manuscript for methodological details).

The timestamps folder contains timestamps for all videos that were saved as TIFF files; these timestamps were written into the first 4 pixels of each image, read out using two Matlab scripts, which can be found in the accompanying code, and were then saved as those CSV files that can be found here.

The originalDFs folder contains pickle files (which in turn contain pandas data frames) of all the trackings; the correctedDFs folder contains the same but corrected for frames where the tracking did not work; these corrections can be found in a python dictionary described in the corrections.npy file. The pandas data frames contain the tracked x-y coordinates as well as a number of calculated parameters of interest, such as the distance to the nearest wall at each frame. The data frames containing all frames are called 'df', the ones that contain reduced trajectories (obtained through the Ramer-Douglas-Peucker algorithm) are called 'reduced'.
