NEAT C#
Released 2003
The SharpNEAT package contains C# source code for the NeuroEvolution of Augmenting Topologies method (see the original NEAT C++ package). It includes implementations of experiments for XOR and predator/prey. A Windows executable is included. For more information please visit Colin Green's SharpNEAT Page.

For answers to common questions about the NEAT method, refer to our NEAT Users Page .

SharpNEAT and its two experiments were written by Colin Green based on the NEAT method by Kenneth Stanley. Please direct bug reports to sharpneat@dsl.pipex.com. Please contact kstanley@cs.utexas.edu for other comments, including ideas or plans for expanding the open source software.
