| 1 | **AngoraPy** is an open source modeling library for [[goal-oriented research>>https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26906502/]] in **neuroscience**. It provides a simple interface to train deep neural network models of the human brain on various, customizable, sensorimotor tasks, using reinforcement learning. It thereby empowers goal-driven modeling to surpass the sensory domain and enter that of sensori//motor// control, closing the perception-action loop. | ||

| 3 | **AngoraPy** is designed to require no deeper understanding of reinforcement learning. It employs state-of-the-art machine learning techniques, optimized for distributed computation scaling from local workstations to high-performance computing clusters. We aim to hide as much of this under the hood of an intuitive, high-level API but preserve the option for customizing most aspects of the pipeline. | ||

| 5 | This library is developed as part of the [[Human Brain Project>>https://www.humanbrainproject.eu/]] at [[CCN Maastricht>>https://www.ccnmaastricht.com/]]. It is an effort to build software by neuroscientists, for neuroscientists. If you have suggestions, requests or questions, feel free to [[open an issue>>https://github.com/ccnmaastricht/angorapy/issues/new/choose]]. | ||
