Classification of GABAergic interneurons by leading neuroscientists

n 2013, we asked 48 leading neuroscientists to classify 320 interneurons by inspecting images of their morphology. That study was the first to quantify the degree of agreement among neuroscientists in morphology-based interneuron classification, showing high agreement for the chandelier and Martinotti types, yet low agreement for most of the remaining types considered. Here we present the dataset containing the classification choices by the neuroscientists according to interneuron type as well as to five prominent morphological features.

2013年，我们邀请48位顶尖神经科学家，通过观察形态学图像对320个中间神经元（interneuron）进行分类。该项研究首次量化了神经科学家在基于形态学的中间神经元分类任务中的共识程度，结果显示，针对吊灯状（chandelier）与马蒂诺蒂（Martinotti）两类中间神经元的分类共识度较高，而其余多数受试类型的共识度较低。本研究公开了此次数据集，其中包含神经科学家基于中间神经元类型以及五项典型形态学特征所给出的分类结果。
