Lincoln traffic control experiment

Asks whether a 196-neuron, 2,966-edge MaleCNS v1.0 optic-lobe subgraph (21,984 summed synaptic contacts, ten cell types) can request sensible signal phases for a post-game traffic queue model of three junctions in Lincoln, Nebraska. It can, by supervised imitation of a queue heuristic, and that is a negative result for the wiring: the measured circuit (93.20 queue-seconds per arrival), a rewired control (92.84), a conventional network (92.82) and the heuristic itself (93.26) all perform alike. The author says the test establishes no benefit from biological wiring.
