Annotated_counts table counts area and their subdivision differently #115

Open bhnrus opened 2 years ago

bhnrus commented 2 years ago

Hi, I was going over the annotated counts table and noticed some duplicates regarding an area and it's subdivisions. For example, ClearMap counted 3 neurons in the cortical subplate, while in the same brain it counted 3 neurons in the endopiriform nucleus ventral part, another 4 in the dorsal part and another 2 in the claustrum. The last 3 brain areas are a part the cortical subplate so I don't understand how could that be. Especially when checking the ABA there's no 'cortical subplate' on its own and it is comprised of a few smaller brain areas. I will love a clarification about that.

Thanks! Nimrod

The neurons counted in "cortical subplate" (id 703) are neurons located in this structure but not in the substructures it contains (ids 16, 583, 942, 131, 295, 319, 780, 952, 966, 303, 311, 451, 327, 33). In other words, the neurons which are not in a defined subdivision of "cortical subplate" (i.e. not in the ids above) are in "cortical subplate". If you want to pool all the results, we are working on a unreleased version that handles this
