NEAT Matlab
Released 2003
The Matlab NEAT package contains Matlab source code for the NeuroEvolution of Augmenting Topologies method (see the original NEAT C++ package). It includes an implementation of the XOR experiment.

For answers to common questions, refer to our FAQ .

Matlab NEAT was written by Christian Mayr based on the original C++ package by Kenneth Stanley. Please direct bug reports to matlab_neat@web.de. Please contact kstanley@cs.utexas.edu for other comments, including ideas or plans for expanding the open source software.
