Abstract
For the automated behavioral analysis, 3D pose estimation provides an ideal representation of animals. However, 3D pose estimation is less well-studied due to the lack of annotated data sets, as well as the higher computational burden compared to the well-established 2D pose estimation. To tackle those challenges, during my Ph.D study, I will focus on three sub-areas of the 3D pose estimation: multi-view single individual pose estimation, multi-view multi-individual pose estimation and egocentric pose estimation. By doing so, I will make sure that those innovations are suitable for various behavioral analysis applications (mouse behavior analysis, fish behavior analysis and measurement of patients' functional impairment respectively). Thus, I can create methods that are robust and universal and thus strongly impact to the computational ethology and neuroscience.
