bancpipeline: Data pre-processing pipeline for the BANC connectome

Year: 2026

Type: software

Abstract: Post-proofreading pipeline for the Brain And Nerve Cord (BANC) connectome (Bates, Phelps, Kim, Yang et al., 2025). Produces the analysis-ready data files released alongside the paper: skeletonization, cross-dataset neuron matching (NBLAST + connectivity), axon-dendrite splitting, neuropil assignment to synapses, neurotransmitter and metric enrichment, and consolidated per-neuron metadata. Headline algorithmic contribution: annealed morphology + connectivity cell-type alignment, paper Methods §'Automated typing by morphology and connectivity'.
