  • Abstract
    This paper presents the generation of realistic morphologically neural cells employing a modified L-System. These grammars incorporate functions that refer to the morphological features extracted from natural cells (e.g. branch dendritic, angle and size). A parser is used to generate the neural cells, which can be viewed by a 3D visualization software specifically developed to show the branching structures.
