  • Descrição: Increasingly, animal behavior studies are enhanced through the use of accelerometry. To allow translation of raw accelerometer data to animal behaviors requires the development of classifiers. Here, we present the “rabc” (r for animal behavior classification) package to assist researchers with the interactive development of such animal behavior classifiers in a supervised classification approach. The package uses datasets consisting of accelerometer data with their corresponding animal behaviors (e.g., for triaxial accelerometer data along the x, y and z axes arranged as “x, y, z, x, y, z,…, behavior”). Using an example dataset collected on white stork (Ciconia ciconia), we illustrate the workflow of this package, including accelerometer data visualization, feature calculation, feature selection, feature visualization, extreme gradient boost model training, validation, and, finally, a demonstration of the behavior classification results. Other than the serial functions to turn raw accelerometer data into behaviors, this package also provides interactive visualization tools to assist in handling and interpreting the accelerometer input data, deciding on appropriate behavior categories for classification and understanding the classification results. In brief, this package promotes the integration of the user's expert knowledge on their own research system in developing advanced behavior classification models.
