Scalable Query Answering Under Uncertainty to Neuroscientific Ontological Knowledge: The NeuroLang Approach.

Researchers in neuroscience have a growing number of datasets available to study the brain, which is made possible by recent technological advances. Given the extent to which the brain has been studied, there is also available ontological knowledge encoding the current state of the art regarding its different areas, activation patterns, keywords associated with studies, etc. Furthermore, there is inherent uncertainty associated with brain scans arising from the mapping between voxels-3D pixels-and actual points in different individual brains.
