Abstract
Registration of data to a common frame of reference is an essential step in the analysis and integration of diverse neuroscientific data modalities. To this end, volumetric brain atlases enable histological datasets to be spatially registered and analysed, yet accurate registration remains expertise-dependent and slow. We have trained a neural network, DeepSlice, to register mouse brain histology to the Allen Brain Atlas, retaining accuracy while improving speed by >1000 fold.
