Description

Hi,

I wondered if it was possible to generate a taxonomy from 2 sources? Specifically the Allen mouse brain atlas and a mouse spleen dataset?

Thanks in advance!

Research direction

The request asks whether a taxonomy can be generated from both the Allen mouse brain atlas and a mouse spleen dataset, but it names no files, tests, or entry points. First clarify the expected taxonomy and how the two sources should be combined; done would require an agreed implementation scope and validation against both datasets.
