Features for stranger test.

Feature Unit Description
Time until approach Seconds Time from start to first approach of
stranger
Duration of approach Seconds Time from start of the approach to
coming in close proximity to stranger
Speed of first
approach
Pixels/Seconds Average speed of first approach
Trajectory length Pixels Length of all traveled trajectory
Trajectory length
until first approach
Pixels Length of the trajectory from start to
coming to the stranger's proximity
Area Pixels2 Approximation of the area
covered by the dog, using convex
hull approximation
Intensity of use Integer Ratio between the total trajectory
and the square root of the area
covered by the trajectory
Total contact Seconds Time spent in proximity to stranger
Straightness Decimal Ratio between the distance from
start point S to endpoint F,
and trajectory length from S to F
Straightness until
first approach
Decimal Ratio between the distance from
start point S to approach point A,
and trajectory length from S to A
Contact ratio Decimal Percentage of frames in proximity to
stranger
