Results of eigenmaggot analysis. Panel (a) shows the percentage of the original data's variance recovered given the dimensionality of the representation. Panel (b) shows the eigenmaggots with the most significant eigenmaggot on top, the second below, etc. These shapes can be added up in different proportions to reproduce the larval postures (figure 1). Panel (c) shows a three-dimensional behavioural trajectory in eigenmaggot space, that is the time evolution of the first three eigenmaggot coefficients. The subtrajectory highlighted is an example of what we call a turning manoeuvre, see §3.2. Panel (d) shows a part of the same trajectory as three separate one-dimensional time series; the subsequence underlined corresponds to the highlighted subtrajectory on panel (c). Panel (e) shows binary images of the maggot at the corresponding time slices from panel (d).
