Description

Animal basis biological information record case
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of feeding equipment, in particular to an animal foundation biological information recording box.
Background
The mouse brain and the human brain have higher structural and functional similarity, can show social behaviors very similar to human, for example, the self-closing symptom model mouse can have the emotion and behavior changes of forced chewing, communication disorder, self-hair management, repeated nesting, irritability and the like, and is well fit with disease characteristics. The behavioral experiments can help scientific researchers to explore complex life phenomena such as cognition, emotion, movement and the like, and also help to understand and explore disease pathogenesis, so the behavioral experiments of rodents are an important means of neuroscience research.
The existing behavioral test method is mainly used for evaluating learning and memory, mental emotion, movement coordination capacity and the like of animal models, but basic vital signs and basic behaviors of experimental mice can be changed in some disease states besides the change of the emotion behaviors, for example, inflammatory model mice can show disease manifestations such as body temperature and weight reduction, feeding and water intake reduction, movement reduction and the like, however, the research on basic signs and basic behaviors of rodent experimental animals still lacks efficient monitoring means. Therefore, the development of a general behavior detection system which can be used for high-efficiency analysis and continuously monitoring the basic behavior and the basic behavior of rodents has wide application prospect.
The method for measuring the water intake of animals is a widely applied test method, can be used for monitoring the water intake of animals, and can further study the behaviors such as depression, addiction and the like by giving an aqueous sugar solution. Existing small animal water intake tests typically require manual weighing of the solution and cannot be automatically tested. The daily water intake of small animals is very small, and a small amount of mass loss in the manual weighing process causes a great error. For detecting the feed intake, a method for manually weighing the feed quality at fixed time is generally adopted, so that the efficiency is low, and time and labor are wasted. The common method for measuring the body temperature of the experimental animal is to manually measure the anus temperature, the experimental animal often struggles and is not easy to operate during operation, and the anus temperature measurement brings pain to the experimental animal. At present, the detection of the movement behaviors of rodents such as open field experiments and gait experiments is carried out by analyzing the movement in a certain time period, and an efficient, convenient and economic system for carrying out 24-hour movement monitoring on experimental animals is lacking in the market. The motion behavior of the experimental animal is captured and monitored, the traditional method is to mark the animal body, attach a bulb or a reflecting patch, the method is complex, and only a special laboratory can study the motion details in the process.

If the used model has high accuracy, the model can be used for test video analysis, and if the accuracy is lower, manual marking, retraining and inspection are needed to be carried out again. The trained and checked deep Labcut can be used for analyzing related test videos. The coordinate values (X, Y) of the pixel points of each frame of the marked part can be obtained through the DeepLabcut, and the coordinate data are synchronized to Python for analysis. As described above, the camera, which is externally arranged in the box for 24 hours and monitors and records, records at a frame rate of 25 frames per second, and the time difference between the frames can be calculated according to the number of each frame. Knowing that the bottom edge length of the box body is 250mm, the coordinate position change can be converted into the real distance through conversion between the pixel points and the real distance, so that the moving distance is counted. Thus, the movement data of the mice can be recorded and analyzed, including movement distance, duration, speed and the like. By analyzing the movement distance in a fixed time period, the movement state can be defined, if the movement distance exceeds 5cm in 30 seconds to be a spontaneous movement state and does not exceed 5cm to be a static state, the movement and static distinction can be realized, and the spontaneous movement and static time distribution situation is obtained and used for rhythm analysis.
The deep neural network for marking and predicting the animal body part by the deep learning software package deep Labcut needs to be trained in advance, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080SUPER graphic processing unit is used for carrying out 30 ten thousand iterative training, 25000 iterative refining training is carried out, the training error of the network is 1.85 pixels, and the test error is 2.59 pixels. This network was used to analyze the video of all trials.
The foregoing description of the preferred embodiments of the invention is not intended to be limiting, but rather is intended to cover all modifications, equivalents, alternatives, and improvements that fall within the spirit and scope of the invention.
