Research Agenda

From raw animal video to behavior understanding

This page organizes the research questions behind Junu's Lab: animal pose estimation, behavior recognition, video understanding, and annotation-efficient learning for animal behavior analysis.

Research Tracks

Core research tracks

Annotation-efficient learning

active

How can labeling cost be reduced when building animal behavior datasets?

Animal behavior datasets are expensive to label, so weak supervision, pseudo-labeling, semi-supervised learning, and active learning can make experiments more scalable.

Behavior recognition from animal video

active

How can short and long animal behaviors be classified from video, pose sequences, or multimodal features?

Behavior recognition connects low-level visual signals to interpretable animal behavior analysis.

Animal pose estimation & keypoint trajectories

active

How can animal body movement be represented from raw video using pose and keypoint trajectories?

Pose and trajectory representations reduce the complexity of raw video and provide a structured basis for behavior analysis.
