+Automatic brain structural parcellation through registration-based segmentation-propagation and multi-atlas-based label-fusion
 This bash scripts is created for `Multi-atlas based automatic brain structural parcellation`, mainly for mouse brain MRI.
 
 This script achieve automatic brain MRI image segmentation with given [__mouse brain MRI atlases__](https://github.com/dancebean/mouse-brain-atlas) - which is a set of pairs of template images along with their manually labells. Sample atlases can be downloadable from the Github respsitory [here](https://github.com/dancebean/mouse-brain-atlas). For detailed description of the pipeline, please refer to the papers [[1]](http://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal.pone.0086576) [[2]](https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fnins.2019.00011). [Citation](#citation) of the two papers are listed at the bottom of this page.
