ethograph
EthoGraph is a graphical user interface for visualizing and segmenting multimodal timeseries behavioural data. It builds upon a number of open-source libraries to load and quickly render video and pose files, audio and spectrograms, ephys recordings in various formats, and arbitrary multi-dimensional timeseries — all on one shared timeline.
Note this GUI is still in development. I welcome people testing it and providing feedback!
Quickstart
First install uv, a fast Python package manager:
# macOS / Linux (except WSL)
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
# Windows
winget install astral-sh.uv
Then install the GUI as a standalone tool — one command, no environment to create or activate:
uv tool install --python 3.12 "ethograph[gui,audio]"
To open the GUI, run:
ethograph check # Linux only : Check for missing libraries
ethograph launch
ethographnot recognized? uv has not added its bin directory to yourPATHyet. Runuv tool update-shell, then open a new terminal.
For installing into a dedicated virtual environment,segmentation models, and troubleshooting, see installation guide.
After launching, there are some example datasets you can explore the GUI with. To learn more about all the functionalities, I recommend the user manual.
Support
EthoGraph is built on top of a number of open-source projects: PyAV, audioio, Neo, crowsetta, Neurodata Without Borders, xarray, pynapple, movement, phy, PyQtGraph, and pygfx (via pynaviz).
EthoGraph is GPL-3.0-or-later. The code it vendors or adapts from other projects, and each one's licence, is listed in THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md.
