Remarks

This is an aplication of genetic algorithm to train neural networks. The population is made of GeneticNeuralNetwork instance which is a compact representation of neural network. A genetic neural network represent a set of weights and threshold for a particular neural network. Here is the main loop of the algorithm :

            	  Create initial random population of POPULATION_SIZE neural networks
            	   -> Evaluate fitness function (square error on learning values)
            	  |   Select best neural networks
            	  |   Cross selected networks to make new generation
                -- apply mutation operator on new generation
            	  Until error > error_threshold
