Research mapping SVG brain annotations #3

Closed ThunderShiviah closed 9 years ago

Goal

Research how to apply registration and other forms of mapping to the brain atlas SVG annotations.

Context

For a registration problem we have a target image (that stays unaltered during the registration) and a moving image (that is mapped onto the target image). If we assume the target image is the allen images then the SVG annotation overlay does not need to be altered, but if we let the target image be our local lab images, then we will need to find a mapping that registers the allen image onto our lab image and then apply the mapping to the annotation as well. Having the allen image as target has the benefit of not distorting the original lab image (and therefore keeping distortion of data to a minimum).
