Experiment check

 

 

 

 

This dialog allows you to check the consistency of the experiment:

 

Check that the video file exists

If this box is checked, an error message is displayed if the video file no longer exists on the hard disk or is not accessible.

Check that the video file is located in the experiment directory

It is advisable to place all the files used by Ethotrack in a sub-folder of the experiment folder.

Check the arena

If this box is checked, Ethotrack verifies:

1.that the test arena matches the animal's default arena. Indeed, in order to limit the risk of errors, it is advisable, when the experiment involves several arenas, to always place the animals in the same arena, even if it means leaving an empty place if the animal is excluded during the experiment.

2.that the arena of the video is not used by several tests.

Check detection rate

Allows you to check that the detection of the animal is correct. That is to say :

1.that the detection rate is greater than a certain value.

2.that the maximum duration without detecting the animal is less than a certain value.
