Fylgja Open platform

Quantitative ethology

Behavioural measurement,
open to scrutiny.

Fylgja brings video, pose estimation and behavioural analysis into a shared research workspace. Results retain the methods, revisions and source material needed for their interpretation.

Developed around the mouse three-chamber assay.

From recording to a traceable result

SOURCE

Begin with the recording.

Register the video, animal and experimental phase. Every later result remains connected to this source.

Video · animal · phase

Illustrative mouse landmarks connected to a pose model and trajectory. The lifecycle continues through human review, behavioural analysis, cohort comparison and export.

The research workflow

From recording to a documented result.

  1. Source

    Define the experiment.

    Register recordings, experimental phases and apparatus geometry within a lab project.

  2. Analysis

    Make the method explicit.

    Run hosted pose estimation and apply a versioned behavioural configuration.

  3. Review

    Preserve the evidence.

    Inspect trajectories, record corrections and export the result with its provenance.

Method & evidence

A result is only as useful as its method.

Pose estimation provides anatomical coordinates. Their conversion into measures of occupancy, movement or social preference depends on the assay, its geometry and the analysis settings.

Fylgja keeps these decisions available for inspection. Model agreement and independent human validation are considered separately.

Our purpose

More attention to the experiment.

Research groups should be able to examine behaviour without maintaining a separate computing environment for each study. A shared workspace can reduce that burden while retaining the detail that rigorous interpretation requires.

About Fylgja

Begin a study

Start with one recording.

Create a lab project, register its source video and define the apparatus before beginning analysis.
