Curious readers comparing animal behavior with local forecasts
Worth noticing
Frames are sampled on a variable schedule, while replay clips and major camera-view changes are excluded from the signal.

Field notes

The methodology describes separate confidence cutoffs for each cow behavior and filters overlapping detections when one box substantially duplicates another. It also checks for replay footage and camera changes before using frame pairs, then calculates signals such as sitting share, eating share, and movement from recent detections.
