Hi folks, we are now on Bluesky @FlyBrainObs.bsky.social ! Follow us for latest updates on FFBO and related projects. bsky.app/profile/flybra…
Modeling and characterization of pure and odorant mixture processing in the Drosophila mushroom body calyx doi.org/10.3389/fphys.… (iii)The semantics info is mapped by the Calyx into a first spike sequence for easy memory access in the Mushroom Body.
Modeling and characterization of pure and odorant mixture processing in the Drosophila mushroom body calyx doi.org/10.3389/fphys.… (ii)The Antennal Lobe and Calyx jointly separate the odorant semantics from syntactic information.
Modeling and characterization of pure and odorant mixture processing in the Drosophila mushroom body calyx doi.org/10.3389/fphys.… (i)Odorant stimuli are modeled by their identity (semantics) and concentration amplitude (syntactic) information content.
We will demo: 1.Ask questions about neuropils, neurons, and synapses using our graph database. 2.Upload and discuss a paper, visualize associated circuits, access related literature. 3.Generate region constrained connectivity matrices for said circuits.
DrosoGPT provides chat-based access to Drosophila brain morphology and literature data, integrated with NeuroNLP for 3D connectome visualization and exploration of brain structure and function.
Our team is presenting DrosoGPT, our new interactive tool that bidirectionally links brain-scale connectome data with fruit fly literature, as well as ontology data. Come visit us at the Y26 poster board at #SfN24 today from 1-5pm!
BrainMapViz now features the Optic Lobe connectomic dataset, containing over 50,000 neurons in the right optic lobe. The dataset features indexable columns, strata, layers and hexagonal rings. Check it out and start exploring at opticlobe.neuronlp.fruitflybrain.org
Flywire on BrainMapViz now features the latest snapshot 783, with more complete connectomic data and detailed neuron skeletons. Try out the demos at flywire.neuronlp.fruitflybrain.org
doi.org/10.1007/s00422… cont'd Cascade of 2 DNPs detecting motion in natural scenes. (top) 1st column: original video. 2nd: Output of the DNP without MVP block. 3rd: Output of the DNP with MVP block. 4th: Output of the DNP with adaptive feedback block. (bottom) Motion detected.
Two cascaded divisive normalization processors, carrying out intensity/contrast gain control and elementary motion detection, respectively, model the robust motion detection of the early visual system of the fruit fly doi.org/10.1007/s00422…
BrainMapViz now features the Drosophila Optic Lobe connectome, featuring mostly columnar neurons in the medulla, lobula and lobula plate. Try out the demos the begin exploring at opticlobe.neuronlp.fruitflybrain.org
BrainMapViz now features an updated Drosophila L1 Larva Connectome (L1EM) dataset with over 3000 neurons (including part of larva ventral nerve cord). Try out the demos and begin exploring at larva3000.neuronlp.fruitflybrain.org
BrainMapViz now features FlyWire dataset. Try out the demos and begin exploring the near-complete Drosophila brain connectome at flywire.neuronlp.fruitflybrain.org
BrainMapViz now features Ventral Nerve Cord (VNC) connectomic dataset. Check it out and start exploring at manc.neuronlp.fruitflybrain.org
Our new paper "A Programmable Ontology Encompassing the Functional Logic of the Drosophila Brain" is online: doi.org/10.3389/fninf.…. Try out NeuroNLP++ described in the paper in the new release of hemibrain.neuronlp.fruitflybrain.org along with other new features.
NeuroNLP++ is in Neuromatch 4.0 this week! Check it out at plusplus.neuronlp.fruitflybrain.org and explore a new demo focusing on circadian clock-related neurons in Drosophila (quick link: plusplus.neuronlp.fruitflybrain.org/?demo=neuronlp… )! #brain #neuroscience #Drosophila #nmc4
NeuroNLP++ Beta is here! We have updated the natural language processing interface to answer free-form questions about cell types and suggest queries; check it out! plusplus.neuronlp.fruitflybrain.org #brain #neuroscience #Drosophila
