The Behavior Ensemble and Neural Trajectory Observatory (Bento)

Bento is a tool for organizing, visualizing, and analyzing multimodal neuroscience datasets.

An earlier, Matlab-based version of Bento is available here.

New In This Release

Version 0.3.0-beta

Added Features

  • Plug-ins supporting display of MARS, DLC, and SLEAP pose files
  • Support for loading and displaying annotations made in Bento, BORIS, SimBA, and the Caltech Behavior Annotator
  • Plug-ins for event-triggered-averaging of neural activity, and for k-means clustering of neurons based on activity over the full trial
  • Export of your experimental data (neural recording, pose, behavior annotations) to a NWB file
  • Main window now supports jumping to a specific time or frame number in a video
  • Added button to delete files from a trial (though you can still also use the delete key)
  • Simplified setup of the conda environment, removing OS-specific environment files

Bugs Fixed

  • Desynced scrolling/display of annotations + neural traces has been fixed
  • Editing trials in v0.2.0-beta caused an increment in the trial number; this is now fixed
  • Widgets are now cleared out when new data is loaded

Getting Started

Previous Release Updates

Version 0.2.0-beta

Added Features

  • A plug-in interface to support import and display of pose data
  • A pose plug-in for MARS format mouse pose data
  • A pose plug-in for DeepLabCut format generic and MARS-style mouse pose data (*.h5, or *.csv)
  • "Parula" color table for display of neural heatmap data
  • Annotations can now be applied from the neural viewer window

Bugs Fixed

  • On initial startup when no Investigators yet exist, v0.1.0-beta would prompt for the selection of an Investigator anyway. With this release, it takes you to the "Add Investigators" dialog instead.
  • The vertical scaling of annotations has been fixed.
