happy to announce a new paper by @richardvogg.bsky.social and MANY colleagues from our SFB (@uni-goettingen.de & @primatenzentrum.bsky.social): They present PriMAT, our robust AI model to track different primate species in their natural habitates in the wild: journals.plos.org/plosone/arti...

PriMAT: Robust multi-animal tracking of primates in the wild
Detection and tracking of animals is an important first step for automated behavioral studies using videos. Animal tracking is currently done mostly using deep learning frameworks based on keypoints, ...

New publication from the Fichtel-Kappeler-Lab (@kirindy.bsky.social) is out in Animal Cognition: @elifkarakoc.bsky.social, @richardvogg.bsky.social & colleagues show: competence pays – briefly Red-fronted lemurs could learn to obtain food from food boxes ... link.springer.com/article/10.1...

People in Göttingen who are interested in monkey research 🐒 and AI: I will be giving a talk at this year's Pint of Science 🍻. Tickets are now available, also check out all the other interesting topics! [Small "warning": My talk will be in German but it will contain many cute monkey and lemur videos]

It's a 2-paper kinda week 😎 Exciting news for animal behaviour researchers! Our new paper is out now in @naturemethods.bsky.social, exploring the intersection of computer vision and animal behaviour. Congrats to lead author @richardvogg.bsky.social and everyone who worked so hard on this one 🧵1/2
A figure from the paper showing, on the left, three frames from a video in which two lemurs move through an area of forest; in the middle, the same three frames with bounding boxes surrounding each lemur; and on the right, a plot of the model output, showing the location and behaviour of each lemur over time
