310 Tasdizen, Tolga; Jones, Bryan W.; Whitaker, Ross T.Computational framework for ultrastructural mapping of neural circuitryCircuitry mapping of metazoan neural systems is difficult because canonical neural regions (regions containing one or more copies of all components) are large, regional borders are uncertain, neuronal diversity is high, and potential network topologies so numerous that only anatomical ground truth c...2009
