Fig 7. Partial mutual information between behaviors in paired animals.

a) The partial mutual information for all data from each behavioral pairing in a paired context is calculated and positive values are displayed. b) The partial mutual information is calculated as in part (a) independently for each pairing in a given context, and the mean value is shown for each set of paired coarse behaviors. Only positive values are displayed. An enrichment on the diagonal of these matrices demonstrates synchronization of similar behaviors in time.
