CHIMERA (larval connectome in MuJoCo)

caparison1234

A Python project that runs 1,373 neurons and 22,400 synapses from the Winding et al. 2023 larval Drosophila connectome as LIF units and lets them drive a real-time MuJoCo larva body. Note the front end: a small Qwen2.5 0.5B language model converts typed text (English, Korean, Japanese or Chinese) into sensory drive, so 'danger' activates nociceptors and produces retreat or curling, and 'food smell' produces head scanning; the connectome itself is not perceiving anything. All 17 commits date from 2026-03-21, well before the September wave; no license is stated.
