Rtrack is an open-source software package for the analysis of spatial exploration data from behavioural tests such as the Morris water maze. The software provides an easy-to-use interface for data import, analysis and visualisation. A parameter-free machine learning model allows rapid and reproducible classification of spatial search strategies. We also propose a standard export format to enable cross-platform data sharing for the first time in the field.

Matching journals

The top 5 journals account for 50% of the predicted probability mass.

50% of probability mass above

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
