MIROSLAV (Multicage InfraRed Open Source Locomotor Activity eValuator) is a platform for non-invasive monitoring of circadian locomotor activity in laboratory rodents. All of its hardware and software components are described in the paper: #url
This mirofile
library, acting as a file-like object, loads raw MIROSLAV files containing experimental data and parses them into a sequence of lists, each containing appropriately-typed timestamps and sensor readings, which can then be turned into a pandas
data frame by the user.
A script which exemplifies the use of this library can also be found in the MIROSLAV paper's data repository: #url.
