Abstract

The two dimensional movement tracks of STAT92E 06346 mutant and two control strains ( Oregon red ( OR) and TM3) of Drosophila melonogaster were continuously observed with image processors. Subsequently Self-Organizing Map (SOM) was implemented to patterning of responding behaviors of the tested specimens. Movement behaviors were accordingly revealed in different strains and sex. SOM showed difference in degree of grouping in behaviors in different genotypes. Visualization through SOM further characterized the clusters of specimens with the variables regarding activities and spatial information. The study demonstrated that techniques in data mining in artificial neural networks could be a useful tool for analyzing complex behaviors induced by changes in genetic information.
