The conversion of visual input into behavior requires whole-brain circuits of diverse neurons. Due to the inaccessibility of mammalian model systems, there exists a gap in understanding how these neurons are connected and influence neural response dynamics that underlie behavior. Recent studies into the visually guided optomotor response (OMR) in larval zebrafish have attempted to bridge this gap by proposing circuit models that predict connectivity among functionally identified response classes of motion-processing neurons driving the OMR [1,2]. However, these models only consider responses o
