Class CompareEncogProgram

java.lang.Object

org.encog.ml.prg.species.CompareEncogProgram

public class CompareEncogProgram
extends java.lang.Object

Compare two Encog programs for speciation. Count the nodes that are the different, the higher the compare value, the more different two genomes are. Only the opcodes are compared, the actual values are not. This causes the comparison to be more about structure than actual values. Two genomes with the same structure, and different values, can be identical.
