siibra.core.structure

Abstract base class for any kind of brain structure. A brain structure is more general than a brain region. It refers to any object defining a spatial extent in one or more reference spaces, and can thus be used to compute intersections with other structures in space. For example, a brain region is a structure which is at the same time an AtlasConcept. A bounding box in MNI space is a structure, but not an AtlasConcept.

class siibra.core.structure.BrainStructure

Abstract base class for types who can act as a location filter.

__contains__(other: BrainStructure) → bool

__hash__() → int

Return hash(self).

abstract __repr__() → str

Return repr(self).

None if there is no AssignmentQualification found.

Return type:

assignment.AnatomicalAssignment or None

abstract intersection(other: BrainStructure) → BrainStructure

Return the intersection of two BrainStructures, ie. the other BrainStructure filtered by this BrainStructure.

intersects(other: BrainStructure) → bool

Whether or not two BrainStructures have any intersection.
