That sounds pretty interesting, would you happen to know if these can be used to simulate the worm connectome (OpenWorm?) linked up in a virtual environment?

- Seanny123 8y agoOther student from the lab here. You could, but it might not be particularly useful. They already have a really good simulation environment and ways to connect it to virtual environments. It would be useful if you wanted to extend the model with further neural populations!
- psandersen 8y agoAwesome, thanks for the reply. So if someone had a cockroach or ant connectome the Nengo simulator could, in theory, be used to simulate a population of them connected to some virtual environment?
- Seanny123 8y agoYes, it could, but you'd first have to translate the connectome into spiking neurons, which is a non-trivial task.
