Abstract
There are generally four categories of trajectory data: mobility of people, mobility of transportation vehicles, mobility of animals, and mobility of natural phenomena (Zheng, 2015). Animal tracking is important for fields as diverse as ethology, optimal foraging theory, and neuroscience. Mouse behavior, for example, is a widely studied in biomedical and brain research in models of neurological disease such as stroke.1
