  "summary": "Behavioural experiments often hinge on moments when animals crowd together. In these situations, existing pose-estimation methods usually fail because detected crops include neighbouring animals, and their body parts are easily confused between individuals. We solved it with DeepLabSAM, a pipeline that segments and tracks every animal from a single text prompt using the SAM 3 foundation model,…",
