The neuron classification problem is significant for understanding structure-function relationships in computational neuroscience. Advances in recent years have accelerated the speed of data collection, resulting in a large amount of data on the geometric, morphological, physiological, and molecular characteristics of neurons. These data encourage researchers to strive for automated neuron classification through powerful machine learning techniques. This paper extracts a statistical dataset of 43 geometrical features obtained from 116 human neurons, and proposes a neuronal morphology classification approach based on deep residual neural networks with feature scaling. The approach is applied to classify 18 types of human neurons and compares the accuracy of different number of residual block. Then, we also compare the accuracy between the proposed approach and other mainstream machine learning approaches, the classification accuracy of our approach is 100% in the training set and the testing set accuracy is 76.96%. The experimental results show that the deep residual neural network model has better classification accuracy for human neurons.
