Mouse Courtship Ultrasonic Vocalizations with Statistical Analysis and Raw Data

A 73.1 MB repository of data and scripts for analyzing courtship ultrasonic vocalizations (USVs) in male mice. The dataset includes raw data, R scripts, and rendered HTML reports to reproduce the analyses from the manuscript "Linking Quantity and Acoustic Properties of Courtship Vocalizations in Male Mice" by Kono and Kanno. The repository was last updated on May 4, 2026.

Use Cases

• Reproducing statistical analyses of vocal quantity–quality relationships in mouse USVs based on the provided R scripts and data.
• Studying intra-individual variability and within-bout acoustic dynamics in animal vocalizations based on the described supplementary analyses.
• Analyzing synchronized behavioral annotations from video recordings mentioned in the description.
• Using the provided R Markdown and HTML reports as a template for reproducible research workflows in bioacoustics.

Strengths

• Includes a 73.1 MB collection of raw data, analysis scripts, and rendered statistical reports for full reproducibility.
• Provides a detailed file index (README_Data_and_Analysis_Files_Kono-Kanno_BBR2026.xlsx) mapping data files to manuscript figures.
• All statistical analyses were conducted using a specified R version (4.5.1), ensuring computational environment details.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for large-scale modeling.
• The dataset's primary focus is on ICR and C57BL/6J mouse strains, which may limit generalizability to other species or strains.
