@misc{5584, abstract = {This package contains data for the publication "Nonlinear decoding of a complex movie from the mammalian retina" by Deny S. et al, PLOS Comput Biol (2018). The data consists of (i) 91 spike sorted, isolated rat retinal ganglion cells that pass stability and quality criteria, recorded on the multi-electrode array, in response to the presentation of the complex movie with many randomly moving dark discs. The responses are represented as 648000 x 91 binary matrix, where the first index indicates the timebin of duration 12.5 ms, and the second index the neural identity. The matrix entry is 0/1 if the neuron didn't/did spike in the particular time bin. (ii) README file and a graphical illustration of the structure of the experiment, specifying how the 648000 timebins are split into epochs where 1, 2, 4, or 10 discs were displayed, and which stimulus segments are exact repeats or unique ball trajectories. (iii) a 648000 x 400 matrix of luminance traces for each of the 20 x 20 positions ("sites") in the movie frame, with time that is locked to the recorded raster. The luminance traces are produced as described in the manuscript by filtering the raw disc movie with a small gaussian spatial kernel. }, author = {Deny, Stephane and Marre, Olivier and Botella-Soler, Vicente and Martius, Georg S and Tkacik, Gasper}, keywords = {retina, decoding, regression, neural networks, complex stimulus}, publisher = {Institute of Science and Technology Austria}, title = {{Nonlinear decoding of a complex movie from the mammalian retina}}, doi = {10.15479/AT:ISTA:98}, year = {2018}, } @inproceedings{9943, abstract = {Segmentation is the process of partitioning digital images into meaningful regions. The analysis of biological high content images often requires segmentation as a first step. We propose ilastik as an easy-to-use tool which allows the user without expertise in image processing to perform segmentation and classification in a unified way. ilastik learns from labels provided by the user through a convenient mouse interface. Based on these labels, ilastik infers a problem specific segmentation. A random forest classifier is used in the learning step, in which each pixel's neighborhood is characterized by a set of generic (nonlinear) features. ilastik supports up to three spatial plus one spectral dimension and makes use of all dimensions in the feature calculation. ilastik provides realtime feedback that enables the user to interactively refine the segmentation result and hence further fine-tune the classifier. An uncertainty measure guides the user to ambiguous regions in the images. Real time performance is achieved by multi-threading which fully exploits the capabilities of modern multi-core machines. Once a classifier has been trained on a set of representative images, it can be exported and used to automatically process a very large number of images (e.g. using the CellProfiler pipeline). ilastik is an open source project and released under the BSD license at www.ilastik.org.}, author = {Sommer, Christoph M and Straehle, Christoph and Köthe, Ullrich and Hamprecht, Fred A.}, booktitle = {2011 IEEE International Symposium on Biomedical Imaging: from Nano to Micro}, isbn = {978-1-4244-4127-3}, issn = {1945-8452}, keywords = {image segmentation, biomedical imaging, three dimensional displays, neurons, retina, observers, image color analysis}, location = {Chicago, Illinois, USA}, publisher = {Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers}, title = {{Ilastik: Interactive learning and segmentation toolkit}}, doi = {10.1109/isbi.2011.5872394}, year = {2011}, }
