The official PyTorch implementation of Lappalainen et al., "Connectome-constrained networks predict neural activity across the fly visual system" (Nature, 2024): a deep mechanistic network of the fly visual system whose connectivity is fixed by the connectome while its parameters are trained on an optic-flow task. The wiring ships with the package as a FIB-25/FIB-19 medulla reconstruction, not one of the whole-brain datasets. It includes pretrained model ensembles, Colab tutorials and a framework for custom models; several browser demos in the September 2026 wave use it as their eye front end.
