Cluster groups and neighborhood specific UMAP embeddings#

To further investigate the neuronal diversity within each major brain structure, Yao et al. created concept of cell types “neighborhoods” or groups and use them for visualization and analysis. For each neighborhood, they genereated re-embedded UMAPS to reveal fine-grained relationships between neuronal types (WMB-taxonomy) within and between brain regions.
