This paper studies improving joint segmentation and registration by introducing auxiliary labels for anatomy that has similar appearance to the target anatomy while not being part of that target. Such auxiliary labels help avoid false positive labelling of non-target anatomy by resolving ambiguity. A known registration of a segmented atlas can help identify where a target segmentation should li...

The 10or 15-minute blocks between checking on his reactions weren’t long enough to dig into anything substantial. Instead, he recalls, “I posted snarky comments on the internet, which you can do in 5 minutes.” Soon, Allen was answering science questions on the Web site Reddit, where he saw p...

In 1995, Allen Fisher published a poem entitled ‘Mummers’ Strut’ in an issue of the magazine West Coast Line,[1] accompanied by a statement of poetics. The poem is organised into twentyseven short numbered sections, mostly in couplets, ranging from two to twenty lines in length. The predominant impression is of a fragmented discourse that is hard to read as constructing a consistent speaking vo...

The Allen Human Brain Atlas is a publicly available online resource of gene expression information in human brain comprising multiple datasets from several projects. Colorimetric in situ hybridization (ISH) methods were used in several of these projects to provide gene expression data at cellular level resolution in specific brain regions. The data are publicly accessible via a Web-based applic...
