Description
Closes #1001
Adds a new path-level metric,
compute_roaming_entropy, which quantifies howbroadly and uniformly an individual explores 2D space over the course of a
trajectory. It is the Shannon entropy of the spatial occupancy distribution
obtained by binning positions onto a regular 2D grid:
where$p_i$ is the proportion of (non-NaN) time points spent in bin $i$ .
The metric is invariant to the order of visits, so it captures where an
individual went rather than how, complementing speed/distance-based metrics.
