Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we have developed a preprocessing system for semiautomatic detection of active neurons and astrocytes position and automatic identification method of neural types based on a motion artifact correction technique of calcium imaging data that recorded the activity of neurons and astrocytes, a spatiotemporal smoothing method and an image binarization method. Then, we detected inspiratory cells among the active neurons and astrocytes using time-delayed cross correlation analysis and estimated the causality between cells using autoregressive model with exogenous input and a multivariate autoregressive model based approaches. Though it is necessary to evaluated the goodness of fit when applying these models, the estimated causality was found to be valid when comparing it with the data before and after artificially modifying the network structure among cells,.
