Behatrix - Behavioral Sequences Analysis with permutation test

Project description

Behatrix

Behavioral sequences analysis with permutations test

Behatrix logo

Researchers who observe and study behavior often collect data in the form of sequences of behavioral displays that they need to analyze and visualize to test hypotheses. Behatrix is free and open-source software available for GNU/Linux, Windows and Mac OS X.

By using a flexible and efficient approach, Behatrix allows analyzing large sets of behavioral sequences and can organize data into contingency tables. The program can also perform permutations test and autonomously generate the code for a flow diagram representing the transitions between behaviors.

Behatrix can read data exported from BORIS (see Events as behavioral sequences) and can also be used as a standalone program.

Features

  • Behavioral sequences statistics (with n-gram size option)
  • Observed transitions matrix (with n-gram size option)
  • Generation of the Graphviz script from observed transitions
  • Flow diagram generation (with n-gram size option)
  • Random permutations test (with multiprocessing module) with generation of the transitions significativity matrix
  • Flow diagram generation with transitions significativity
  • Behavioral sequences distances: Levenshtein distances and Needleman-Wunsch identities

The flow diagram generation requires the the Graphviz open source graph visualization software.
