Multitrack recording

Summary

Multitrack recording (MTR), also known as multitracking, is a method of sound recording developed in 1955 that allows for the separate recording of multiple sound sources or of sound sources recorded at different times to create a cohesive whole. Multitracking became possible in the mid-1950s when the idea of simultaneously recording different audio channels to separate discrete "tracks" on the same reel-to-reel tape was developed. A "track" was simply a different channel recorded to its own discrete area on the tape whereby their relative sequence of recorded events would be preserved, and playback would be simultaneous or synchronized. A multitrack recorder allows one or more sound sources to different tracks to be simultaneously recorded, which may subsequently be processed and mixed separately. Take, for example, a band with vocals, guitars, a keyboard, bass, and drums that are to be recorded. The singer's microphone, the output of the guitars and keys, and each individual dru

Multi-view approaches to people-tracking have the potential to better handle occlusions than single-view ones in crowded scenes. They often rely on the tracking-by-detection paradigm, which involves detecting people first and then connecting the detections. In this paper, we argue that an even more effective approach is to predict people motion over time and infer people’s presence in individual frames from these. This enables to enforce consistency both over time and across views of a single temporal frame. We validate our approach on the PETS2009 and WILDTRACK datasets and demonstrate that it outperforms state-of-the-art methods.

Wide-field imaging of cortical neuronal activity with red-shifted functional indicators during motor task execution

Silvestro Micera, Maria Pasquini, Francesco Saverio Pavone

Genetically encoded calcium indicators (GECIs) can be used to monitor the intracellular concentration of free calcium in populations of neurons. GECIs with long emission wavelengths are particularly attractive for deep tissue microscopy in vivo, and have the additional advantage of avoiding spectral overlap with commonly used neuronal actuators such as channelrhodopsin. The aim of this work is to evaluate the performances of four red-shifted GECIs (jRCaMP1a, jRCaMP1b, jRGECO1a, jRGECO1b) using both ex vivo and in vivo experimental techniques. Cortical neurons were infected with adeno-associated virus (AAV) expressing one of the red GECI variants. First we characterized the transfection ex vivo in terms of extension and intensity of the indicator. Next, we monitored the neuronal activity over the right cortical hemisphere of a jRCaMP1a-transfected mouse during a goal-directed motor task. To this aim, we combined wide-field fluorescence microscopy with a robotic device for simultaneous recording of cortical neuronal activity, force applied and forelimb position during task execution. Our results show that jRCaMP1a has sufficient sensitivity to monitor in vivo neuronal activity simultaneously over multiple functional areas, and can be successfully used to perform longitudinal imaging sessions in awake mice.
