• Abstract: The demand for improved efficiency and accuracy in vaccine safety assessments is increasing. Here, we explore the application of computer vision technologies to automate the monitoring of experimental mice for potential side effects after vaccine administration. Traditional observation methods are labor-intensive and lack the capability for continuous monitoring. By deploying a computer vision system, our research aims to improve the efficiency and accuracy of vaccine safety assessments. The methodology involves training machine learning models on annotated video data of mice behaviors pre- and post-vaccination. Preliminary results indicate that computer vision effectively identify subtle changes, signaling possible side effects. Therefore, our approach has the potential to significantly enhance the monitoring process in vaccine trials in animals, providing a practical solution to the limitations of human observation.

  The emergence of COVID-19 has had a global and profound impact, not only on society as a whole, but also on the lives of individuals. Various prevention measures were introduced around the world to limit the transmission of the disease, including face masks, mandates for social distancing and regular disinfection in public spaces, and the use of screening applications. These developments triggered the need for novel and improved computer vision techniques capable of (i) providing support to the prevention measures through an automated analysis of visual data, on the one hand, and (ii) facilitating normal operation of existing vision-based services, such as biometric authentication
