dataset_path is dispatched by type:

  • a directory – treated as a DeepLabCut project (labeled-data/<video>/ CollectedData*.{csv,h5}).

  • a .slp file – treated as a SLEAP .pkg.slp package. Export it from the SLEAP GUI via Predict -> Export Labels Package. Only single-view, single-animal SLEAP projects are supported.
