1. Navigate through the frames of the video sequence.
2. Displays previous frame.
3. Displays next frame.
4. Select previous sequence.
5. Select next sequence.
6. Select previous arena.
7. Select next arena.
8. Threshold, this parameter selects the minimum intensity level (1-255) for the detected objects.
9. Selects minimum object size in pixels.
10. Selects maximum object size in pixels.
11. Allows to enable or disable the background subtraction algorithm (subtracted background will not be shown in the visualization window).

13. Shows the areas of the image excluded from the tracking area.
14. Shows unfiltered detections.
15. Shows filtered detections.
16. Shows the number of detected objects with the current parameters.
17. Shows the range of sizes of de detected objects, together with the mean and standard deviation of the sizes.
18. Displays current detection in the selected arena and video frame. Calibration distortion is applied to the displayed image. Detected objects are displayed in different colors over imposed to the image. The user should check that all animals are detected with the current parameters, and no objects of the background are detected.
I am having trouble getting the software to pick up a rat (dark brown) on a light colored background. Do you have any recommendations for trouble shooting?
