public class NeuralGeneticAlgorithm
extends GeneticAlgorithm<java.lang.Double>
implements Train

NeuralGeneticAlgorithm: Implements a genetic algorithm that allows a feedforward neural network to be trained using a genetic algorithm. This algorithm is for a feed forward neural network. This class is abstract. If you wish to train the neural network using training sets, you should use the TrainingSetNeuralGeneticAlgorithm class. If you wish to use a cost function to train the neural network, then implement a subclass of this one that properly calculates the cost.
