Fish communicate with water flow to enhance a school's social network

Code for running schooling experiments and analyzing the data. Here we have developed python code for controlling devices during the running of experiments and the acquisition of kinematic data from the video recordings. In addition, MATLAB code was developed for the analysis of schooling kinematics.

See the README.md file in the \"running_experiment\" archive for details on the acquisition of data.

The analysis was coded in matlab. The m-file wk_main.m controls the workflow and describes the data analysis. All other m-files supplement that analysis.

## General notes

* Some fields have entries of NaN, which means \"not a number\" and serves as a placeholder when values are not available.
* Some fields have entries of \"n/a\", which means \"not applicable\". For example, were performed recordings of spatial calibrations that have no fish and thus entered \"n/a\" for fish_num, the number of fish in the recording.

## data

有关数据采集的详细信息，请参见“running_experiment”归档中的README.md文件。

分析部分采用MATLAB编写代码。m文件wk_main.m控制工作流程并描述数据分析过程，其他所有m文件均为该分析的补充。

## 通用说明

* 部分字段的条目为NaN（即“非数字”），用于在数值不可用时充当占位符。
* 部分字段的条目为“n/a”（即“不适用”）。例如，在进行无鱼的空间校准记录时，recording中的fish_num（鱼类数量）字段会填入“n/a”。

## 数据

包含本研究中使用的数据集。

### 文件

* compiled_data.csv：提供多种测量指标的均值和方差值，这些指标在本研究的统计分析中作为因变量。
* experiment_log.csv：详细列出每项实验运动学分析所需的参数……
