About

NEAT (NeuroEvolution of Augmenting Topologies) is a method developed by Kenneth O. Stanley for evolving arbitrary neural networks. This project is a pure-Python implementation of NEAT with no dependencies beyond the standard library. It was forked from the excellent project by @MattKallada.

For further information regarding general concepts and theory, please see the Selected Publications on Stanley's page at the University of Central Florida (now somewhat dated), or the publications page of his current website.

neat-python is licensed under the 3-clause BSD license. It is currently only supported on Python 3.6 through 3.11, and pypy3.

Getting Started

If you want to try neat-python, please check out the repository, start playing with the examples (examples/xor is a good place to start) and then try creating your own experiment.

The documentation is available on Read The Docs.
