`flybody`: fruit fly body model for MuJoCo physics

flybody is an anatomically-detailed body model of the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster for MuJoCo physics simulator and reinforcement learning applications.

The fly model was developed in a collaborative effort by Google DeepMind and HHMI Janelia Research Campus.

We envision our model as a platform for fruit fly biophysics simulations and for modeling neural control of sensorimotor behavior in an embodied context; see our accompanying publication.

Getting Started

The fruit fly body model lives in this directory. To visualize it, you can drag-and-drop fruitfly.xml or floor.xml to MuJoCo's simulate viewer.

Beginning interacting with the model via Python is as simple as:

from dm_control import mujoco

physics = mujoco.Physics.from_xml_path('flybody/fruitfly/assets/fruitfly.xml')  # Load model.
physics.step()  # Step simulation.

The quickest way to get started with flybody is to take a look at a tutorial notebook or .

Also, this notebook shows examples of the flight, walking, and vision-guided flight RL task environments.

To train the fly, try the distributed RL training script, which uses Ray to parallelize the DMPO agent training.

Installation

Follow these steps to install flybody:

Option 1: Installation from cloned local repo

Clone this repo and create a new conda environment:
```
git clone https://github.com/TuragaLab/flybody.git
cd flybody
conda env create -f flybody.yml
conda activate flybody
```
flybody can be installed in one of the three modes described next. Also, for installation in editable (developer) mode, use the commands as shown. For installation in regular, not editable, mode, drop the -e flag.
Core installation: minimal installation for experimenting with the fly model in MuJoCo or prototyping task environments. ML dependencies such as Tensorflow and Acme are not included and policy rollouts and training are not automatically supported.
```
pip install -e .
```
ML extension (optional): same as core installation, plus ML dependencies (Tensorflow, Acme) to allow running policy networks, e.g. for inference or for training using third-party agents not included in this library.
```
pip install -e .[tf]
```
Ray training extension (optional): same as core installation and ML extension, plus Ray to also enable distributed policy training in the fly task environments.
```
pip install -e .[ray]
```

Option 2: Installation from remote repo

Create a new conda environment:

conda create --name flybody python=3.10 pip ipython cudatoolkit cudnn=8.2.1=cuda11.3_0
conda activate flybody

Proceed with installation in one of the three modes (described above):

Core installation:

pip install git+https://github.com/TuragaLab/flybody.git

ML extension (optional):

pip install "flybody[tf] @ git+https://github.com/TuragaLab/flybody.git"

Ray training extension (optional):

pip install "flybody[ray] @ git+https://github.com/TuragaLab/flybody.git"

Additional configuring

You may need to set MuJoCo rendering environment varibles, e.g.:
```
export MUJOCO_GL=egl
export MUJOCO_EGL_DEVICE_ID=0
```

Also, for the ML and Ray extensions, LD_LIBRARY_PATH may require an update, e.g.:

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/your/path/to/miniconda3/envs/flybody/lib

You may want to run pytest to test the main components of the flybody installation.
