Abstract
The recent Drosophila central brain connectome offers the possibility of analyzing the graph properties of the fly brain. Crucially, this connectome is dense, meaning all nodes and links are represented, within the limits of experimental error. We consider the connectome as a directed graph with weighted edges. This enables us to look at a number of graph properties, compare them to human designed logic systems, and speculate on how this may affect function. We look at input and output distributions, randomness of wiring, differences between compartments, path lengths, proximity of strong connections, known computational structures, electrical response as a function of compartment structure, and evidence for efficient packing.
