Neuroevolution of Augmenting Topologies (NEAT)
This video explains the NEAT algorithm! This algorithm (published in 2001) lays the groundwork for the evolution of neural network architectures/topologies. This groundwork includes the encoding of neural network topologies, modifications to enable crossover, and the importance of minimal initialization!
