Bumblebee Mushroom Body Neuron Activity and Behavioral States

84.4 MB of CSV files contain behavioral state variables and neuronal activity data for bumblebees. The data was collected by Inga Fuchs for a study on neural correlates of object and panorama matching. It was last updated in March 2026.

Use Cases

• Analyze correlations between food presence/absence state and mushroom body extrinsic neuron unit activity.
• Model walking speed and heading angle as predictors for behavioral match or mismatch location.
• Cluster neuronal activity patterns across multiple mushroom body extrinsic neuron units using animal coordinates.
• Investigate temporal sequences of behavioral state variables relative to recorded neural signals.

Strengths

• Data size is 84.4 MB, indicating a substantial collection of measurements.
• Includes multiple recorded features per animal: coordinates, heading angle, walking speed, and neuronal activity.
• Published under a CC-BY-4.0 license, enabling open reuse.

Limitations

• The exact number of rows (animal records) is unknown, making scale assessment difficult.
• Data is limited to bumblebees, restricting generalizability to other species.
• Sample data is unavailable, preventing immediate inspection of data structure and values.
