Package: areas/genetic/ga/systems/gannet/ Name: GANNET Summary: Genetic Algorithm / Neural NETwork Version: 0.91 (5-SEP-90, 8-SEP-92) Description: This directory contains GANNET (Genetic Algorithm / Neural NETwork). GANNET allows one to evolve neural networks using genetic algorithms. GANNET evolves nets based upon three fitness functions: Input/Output Accuracy, Output 'Stability', and Network Size. The evolved neural network presently has a binary input and binary output format, with neurodes that have either 2 or 4 inputs and weights ranging from -3 to +4. GANNET only allows for 250 neurodes in a net. The distribution includes source code, a verifier program that verifies the best neural network generated, and some sample datasets.
