PyNEAT

PyNEAT: A Python implementation of NEAT.

July, 2020


PyNEAT is a python implementation of the NeuroEvolution of Augmenting Topologies (NEAT) algorithm created by Kenneth O’Stanley. PyNEAT began as an original implementation of NEAT, and then was modified to use the same interface as NEAT-Python to reuse various reporting and configuration features they had developed. However, the core behaviour of the NEAT algorithm implemented in PyNEAT is significantly different to that of NEAT-Python, and is much closer to the original specification of NEAT (Tupper & Neshatian, 2020; Tupper & Neshatian, 2020; Tupper, 2020).
