&amp;gt; Hi All of You&lt;br&gt;
&amp;gt; How to optimize Feed ForwardNeuralNetwork output using Genetic Algorithm =&lt;br&gt;

ion.&lt;br&gt;
&amp;gt; A small Matlab code will help me alot&lt;br&gt;
&amp;gt; thanks&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Genetic algorithms are seldom used to find&lt;br&gt;
weights because they take too long. However,&lt;br&gt;
they are used to find network topology. For&lt;br&gt;
a given topology, weights are found via backprop.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Try GOOGLE GROUP searching in the archives of&lt;br&gt;
comp.ai.neural-nets as well CSSM.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Try GOOGLE WEB searching in Citeseer and Neuroprose.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Hope this helps.&lt;br&gt;
