Overcoming the Domain Gap in Neural Action Representations

Pascal Fua, Pavan P Ramdya, Florian Aymanns, Semih Günel, Sina Honari

Relating behavior to brain activity in animals is a fundamental goal in neuroscience, with practical applications in building robust brain-machine interfaces. However, the domain gap between individuals is a major issue that prevents the training of genera ...

LiftPose3D, a deep learning-based approach for transforming two-dimensional to three-dimensional poses in laboratory animals

Pascal Fua, Pavan P Ramdya, Adám Gosztolai, Victor Lobato Rios, Helge Jochen Rhodin, Semih Günel, Daniel Eduardo Morales Garza, Marco Pietro Abrate

LiftPose3D infers three-dimensional poses from two-dimensional data or from limited three-dimensional data. The approach is illustrated for videos of behaving Drosophila, mice, rats and macaques. ...

Deformation-aware Unpaired Image Translation for Pose Estimation on Laboratory Animals

Pascal Fua, Pavan P Ramdya, Helge Jochen Rhodin, Semih Günel, Siyuan Li, Mirela Ostrek

Our goal is to capture the pose of neuroscience model organisms, without using any manual supervision, to be able to study how neural circuits orchestrate behaviour. Human pose estimation attains remarkable accuracy when trained on real or simulated datase ...

Extensive and diverse patterns of cell death sculpt neural networks in insects

Pavan P Ramdya, Chin-Lin Chen

Changes to the structure and function of neural networks are thought to underlie the evolutionary adaptation of animal behaviours. Among the many developmental phenomena that generate change programmed cell death (PCD) appears to play a key role. We show t ...

Serotonergic Modulation of Walking in Drosophila

Pavan P Ramdya, Chin-Lin Chen

To navigate complex environments, animals must generate highly robust, yet flexible, locomotor behaviors. For example, walking speed must be tailored to the needs of a particular environment. Not only must animals choose the correct speed and gait, they mu ...

DeepFly3D, a deep learning-based approach for 3D limb and appendage tracking in tethered, adult Drosophila

Pascal Fua, Pavan P Ramdya, Helge Jochen Rhodin, Semih Günel, Daniel Eduardo Morales Garza, João Henrique Campagnolo

Studying how neural circuits orchestrate limbed behaviors requires the precise measurement of the positions of each appendage in 3-dimensional (3D) space. Deep neural networks can estimate 2-dimensional (2D) pose in freely behaving and tethered animals. Ho ...

Imaging neural activity in the ventral nerve cord of behaving adult Drosophila

Michaël Unser, Pavan P Ramdya, Chin-Lin Chen, Florian Aymanns, Denis Fortun, Laura Joan Hermans

To understand neural circuits that control limbs, one must measure their activity during behavior. Until now this goal has been challenging, because limb premotor and motor circuits have been largely inaccessible for large-scale recordings in intact, movin ...

Climbing favours the tripod gait over alternative faster insect gaits

Dario Floreano, Auke Ijspeert, Thibault Lucien Christian Asselborn, Pavan P Ramdya, Robin Thandiackal

To escape danger or catch prey, running vertebrates rely on dynamic gaits with minimal ground contact. By contrast, most insects use a tripod gait that maintains at least three legs on the ground at any given time. One prevailing hypothesis for this differ ...

Fluctuation-driven neural dynamics reproduce Drosophila locomotor patterns

Dario Floreano, Pavan P Ramdya, Kyle Gustafson, Andrea Maesani

The neural mechanisms determining the timing of even simple actions, such as when to walk or rest, are largely mysterious. One intriguing, but untested, hypothesis posits a role for ongoing activity fluctuations in neurons of central action selection circu ...

Mechanosensory interactions drive collective behaviour in Drosophila

Dario Floreano, Pavan P Ramdya, Pawel Lichocki, Lukas Frisch, Winnie Wing Yee Tse

Collective behaviour enhances environmental sensing and decision-making in groups of animals. Experimental and theoretical investigations of schooling fish, flocking birds and human crowds have demonstrated that simple interactions between individuals can ...
