Class NEATMutateRemoveLink

    java.lang.Object
      org.encog.neural.neat.training.opp.NEATMutation
          org.encog.neural.neat.training.opp.NEATMutateRemoveLink

All Implemented Interfaces:
  EvolutionaryOperator

    public class NEATMutateRemoveLink

extends NEATMutation

Mutate a genome by removing a random link. Do not remove links from genomes that have fewer than 5 links. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.cs.ucf.edu/~kstanley/ Encog's NEAT implementation was drawn from the following three Journal Articles.
