Abstract
We present a human-in-the-loop system for efficient rodent behavior analysis in drug development. Addressing the time-consuming and labor-intensive nature of manual behavior categorization, this UX-optimized platform integrates AI for complex behavior prediction and active learning to identify rare events. The proposed solution leverages a cloud-native data processing pipeline, AI-based novelty behavior recognition and multi-class classification, demonstrating significant improvements in behavior labeling and discovery.
