GENlib: Genetic Algorithms and Neural Networks

areas/genetic/ga/systems/genlib/
This directory contains a library of functions for Genetic Algorithms together with two applications of this library to train Neural Networks. The first one, called "cosine", uses a genetic algorithm to train a simple three layer Feed-Forward network to work as a cosine-function. This task is very difficult to train for a Backprop-Algorithm while the Genetic Algorithm produces good results. The second one, called "vartop", is developing a Neural Network to perform the XOR-function. This is done with two Genetic Algorithms, the first one develops the topology of the network, and the second one adjusts the weigths.
