AI Tool Dramatically Speeds Analysis of Brain Imaging Data
- AI machine learning can advance neuroscience by identifying and tracking neurons in moving animals
- Researchers used a convolutional neural network called Targettrack to annotate imaging data
- Targettrack minimizes the need for manual annotations and proofreading
- The researchers tested Targettrack on brain imaging data of C. elegans worms
- Targettrack achieved a 50-fold throughput increase compared to full manual annotation
