The identification of animal behavior in video is a critical but time-consuming task in many areas of research. Here, we introduce DeepAction, a deep learning-based toolbox for automatically annotating animal behavior in video. Our approach uses features extracted from raw video frames by a pretrained convolutional neural network to train a recurrent neural network classifier. We evaluate the classifier on two benchmark rodent datasets and one octopus dataset. We show that it achieves high accuracy, requires little training data, and surpasses both human agreement and most comparable existing methods. We also create a confidence score for classifier output, and show that our method provides an accurate estimate of classifier performance and reduces the time required by human annotators to review and correct automatically-produced annotations. We release our system and accompanying annotation interface as an open-source MATLAB toolbox. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
