High Fidelity Visualization of Large Scale Digitally Reconstructed Brain Circuitry with Signed Distance Functions

Abstract

We explore a first proof-of-concept application for visualizing large scale digitally reconstructed brain circuitry using signed distance functions. The significance of our method is demonstrated in comparison with using implicit geometry that is limited to provide the natural look of neurons or explicit geometry that requires huge amounts of memory and has limited scalability with larger circuits.

Euclidean geometry
Euclidean geometry is a mathematical system attributed to ancient Greek mathematician Euclid, which he described in his textbook on geometry, Elements. Euclid's approach consists in assuming a small set of intuitively appealing axioms (postulates) and deducing many other propositions (theorems) from these. Although many of Euclid's results had been stated earlier, Euclid was the first to organize these propositions into a logical system in which each result is proved from axioms and previously proved theorems.
Geometry
Geometry (; ) is a branch of mathematics concerned with properties of space such as the distance, shape, size, and relative position of figures. Geometry is, along with arithmetic, one of the oldest branches of mathematics. A mathematician who works in the field of geometry is called a geometer. Until the 19th century, geometry was almost exclusively devoted to Euclidean geometry, which includes the notions of point, line, plane, distance, angle, surface, and curve, as fundamental concepts.
