Identify and score different phenotypes observed in sets of movies.
===USAGE===
-
Import a folder or set of movies into NEP. The movies should be in a format openable and viewable in Quicktime.
-
In the 'Categories' menu, add phenotypes you're looking for, and assign them each a diferent color.
-
The movies can be given an experimental condition and note to identify the particular movie.
-
Play the movie.
-
click on particular features playing in the movie in order to set a tag.
-
Scores are automatically calulated for each movie and each condition over the set of movies. Scores can then be exported as a CSV file for the set of movies.
=== Features ===
- movies can be started and stopped using the spacebar. They will automatically return to their starting point upon finishing.
- Features are identifiable by keyboard shortcut once clicked on - the numerals 1, 2, 3, etc. will select its corresponding feature.
===Limitations===
- Movies must be readable by quicktime.
- Features and movies cannot be seen at the same time. Press the 'show features' checkbox to hide the movie to reveal scored features.
- Features are not currently assigned a time-stamp, but just an (x,y) position.
- If the location of movies are changed, they will not be immediately readable and must be 'refound' by correcting the "Path" variable in the Properties panel for the selected movie.
