Abstract Base on the data for three dimensional ( 3D) coordinate of 49neurons , 16morphological parameters were obtained by calculation . According to the factor analysis of the morphological parameters , three major characteristics , including dimension , degree of divergence and growths were obtained and chosen for classification . ward?s method was applied in the system cluster analysis . The results showed that the neurons could be classified into 5grades , including motoneuron , bipolar
interneuron , cone neuron , multipolar interneuron and tripolar interneuron , when the Euclidean distance was about 1.5 ; additionally , the development degree of neurons affected the classification results of sensory neuron , tripolar interneuron and multipolar interneuron morphology , therefore ,in the process of
classification in morphology , it should be used mature neurons to avoid to cause interference.

聚类分析在神经元形态特征分类中的应用
以49个神经元的三维坐标为基础数据,选取并计算出16个神经元的形态参数,然后对16个参数进行因子分析,选取出表征神经元大小、发散程度以及生长发育特征的3个特征因子,采用ward 法对样本主因子进行系统聚类分析,从而对样本进行形态分类.结果表明:欧式距离为1.5左右时,研究样本可以分为运动神经元、双极中间神经元与锥体神经元、多级中间与三级中间神经元、感觉神经元以及普肯野神经元5类;神经元所处的发育程度对三级、多级与感觉神经元形态学分类有一定的干扰,因此,在形态学分类过程中,应使用发育成熟的神经元,避免造成干扰.
