Class SelectFixed

java.lang.Object
  org.encog.neural.neat.training.opp.links.SelectFixed

All Implemented Interfaces:

SelectLinks

public class SelectFixed
extends Object
implements SelectLinks

Select a fixed number of link genes. If the genome does not have enough links to select the specified count, then all genes will be returned. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.cs.ucf.edu/~kstanley/ Encog's NEAT implementation was drawn from the following three Journal Articles.
