Abstract
The authors propose a multiscale approach to analyze locomotion activity rhythms of animals. The Wavelet Transform (WT) is used to decompose the locomotion signal into different scales. An activity-section segmentation procedure is introduced to segment different scale activity sections following a strategy of from large scale to small scale with the results arranged in a tree description. Furthermore, each activity segment can be characterized by several parameters. Initial study results on mice are presented
