Quantitative behavioral analyses have become an essential tool for understanding neural circuits. For example, recent studies have shown that ongoing “spontaneous” behaviors drive large fractions of neural activity in the mouse brain. However, the specific behavioral features encoded and their consistency across mice remain unknown. To study the neural representation of interpretable behavioral features, we recorded the activity of ~50,000 neurons in the mouse visual cortex during spontaneous behaviors. We used simultaneous five-camera video recordings to show that orofacial behaviors contain
