Example

import numpy as np
import matplotlib as mpl

import trajectorytools as tt
import trajectorytools.animation as ttanimation
import trajectorytools.socialcontext as ttsocial
from trajectorytools.constants import test_raw_trajectories_path

# Loading test trajectories as a numpy array of locations
test_trajectories = np.load(test_raw_trajectories_path, allow_pickle=True)

# We will process the numpy array, interpolate nans and smooth it.
# To do this, we will use the Trajectories API
smooth_params = {'sigma': 1}
traj = tt.Trajectories.from_positions(test_trajectories,
                                      smooth_params=smooth_params)

# We assume a circular arena and populate center and radius keys
center, radius = traj.estimate_center_and_radius_from_locations()

# We center trajectories around the estimated center
traj.origin_to(center)

# We will normalise the location by the radius:
traj.new_length_unit(radius)

# We will change the time units to seconds. The video was recorded at 32
# fps, so we do:
traj.new_time_unit(32, 'second')

# Now we can find the smoothed trajectories, velocities and accelerations
# in traj.s, traj.v and traj.a
# We can use, for instance, the positions in traj.s and find the border of
# the group:
in_border = ttsocial.in_alpha_border(traj.s, alpha=5)

# Animation showing the fish on the border
colornorm = mpl.colors.Normalize(vmin=0,
                                 vmax=3,
                                 clip=True)
mapper = mpl.cm.ScalarMappable(norm=colornorm, cmap=mpl.cm.RdBu)
color = mapper.to_rgba(in_border)

anim1 = ttanimation.scatter_vectors(traj.s, velocities=traj.v, k=0.3)
anim2 = ttanimation.scatter_ellipses_color(traj.s, traj.v, color)
anim = anim1 + anim2

anim.prepare()
anim.show()

In the directory examples, you can find some more example scripts. Scripts use some example trajectories, which can be found in data. All example trajectories were obtained using idtracker.ai on videos recorded in de Polavieja Lab (Champalimaud Research, Lisbon)
