# navis-flybrains
Transforms to map between different _Drosophila_ template brains. Intended to be used with [navis](https://github.com/schlegelp/navis).

This library is analogous to Greg Jefferis' [nat.templatebrains](https://github.com/natverse/nat.templatebrains), [nat.jrcbrains](https://github.com/natverse/nat.jrcbrains) and [nat.flybrains](https://github.com/natverse/nat.flybrains) for R.

`flybrains` ships with meta data, surface meshes for 17 template brains and a
mirror transform for `FAFB14`. Additional transforms need to be downloaded
separately (see below).

## Installation
You can install `flybrains` from PyPI:

```bash
pip3 install flybrains
```

### External dependencies
In order to use the Jefferis lab transforms, you will need to have
[CMTK](https://www.nitrc.org/projects/cmtk/) installed.

## Bridging transforms

<p align="center">
<img src="https://github.com/schlegelp/navis-flybrains/blob/main/_static/bridging_graph.png?raw=true" width="800">
</p>

It's highly recommended that after install, you download the optional
bridging transforms to map between template brains.

> :exclamation: If you already have downloaded these registrations via `nat.jrcbrains` and/or `nat.flybrains` you can skip this: `flybrains` should be able to find the registrations downloaded via R and register them for you (see also code at the bottom).

```Python
>>> import flybrains

# This downloads (or updates) various CMTK bridging and mirror transforms
# generated or collated by the Jefferis lab - see docstring for details
>>> flybrains.download_jefferislab_transforms()

# This downloads h5 bridging transforms generated by the Saalfeld lab (Janelia)
# - see docstring for details
>>> flybrains.download_saalfeldlab_transforms()

# Register the transforms - this is only necessary if you just downloaded them
>>> flybrains.register_transforms()
```

In the future, simply importing `flybrains` is sufficient to make the
transforms available to [navis](https://navis.readthedocs.io/en/latest/):

```Python
>>> import navis
>>> import flybrains
>>> import numpy as np
>>> points = np.array([[0, 0, 0]])
>>> navis.xform_brain(points, source='FAFB', target='JRC2018F')

```

On import of `flybrains`, these data sources are injected into and can be
readily used to e.g. transform 3d coordinates between brain spaces.

To check which transforms are available (either downloaded or via R) you can
run this:

```Python
>>> # Generate a report - note the mix reg downloaded via Python and R
>>> flybrains.report()

## Documentation
Please see the [transform tutorial](https://navis.readthedocs.io/en/latest/source/tutorials/transforming.html)
for navis to learn how to use the data `flybrains` provides.

## Changes
- `0.1.10` (01/08/21): fix bug that led to warnings during transform registration on Windows systems
- `0.1.9` (05/05/21): fixed mesh normals; fixed JRCFIB2018F units to nm and added JRCFIB2018Fum template;
- `0.1.8` (10/04/21): add a simple symmetrization transform for FAFB: `FAFB14sym`
- `0.1.7` (30/03/21): better deal with systems without nat libraries
- `0.1.6` (25/03/21): fix bug that led to excessive recursive scanning of directories
- `0.1.5` (03/03/21): fix bug that led to meshes not being packaged
- `0.1.4` (24/02/21): added "hemibrain" alias for "JRCFIB2018F"; added hemibrain bounding box mesh
- `0.1.3` (12/01/21): improved the warp mirror registration for `FAFB14`
- `0.1.2` (10/01/21): added a warp mirror registration for `FAFB14`
- `0.1.1` (06/01/21): added `um` (for microns) suffix to `JRCFIB2018F` transforms; added affine `JRCFIB2018Fraw` -> `JRCFIB2018F` -> `JRCFIB2018Fum` transforms
- `0.1.0` (03/01/21): first working version
