Emotions are complex neuro-physiological states that influence behavior. While emotions have been instrumental to our survival, they are also closely associated with prevalent disorders such as depression and anxiety. The development of treatments for these disorders has relied on animal models, in particular, mice are often used in pre-clinical testing. To compare effects between treatment groups, researchers have increasingly used machine learning to help quantify behaviors associated with emotionality. Previous work has shown that computer vision can be used to detect facial expressions in mice. In this work, we create a novel dataset for depressive-like mouse facial expressions using varying LypoPolySaccharide (LPS) dosages and demonstrate that a machine learning model trained on this dataset was able to detect differences in magnitude via dosage amount.
