Jorge provided a Statistics
class (Gist here) that collects data from NEAT. He says the reported behavior occurs in the following case:
java -cp "." ec.Evolve -file ec/app/xor/xor.params -p stat.num-children=1 -p stat.child.0=ec.neat.NEATStatistics -p stat.child.0.file=neat.stat -p seed.0=199573726
Anson took a look at the code and emailed me as follows:
If I'm understanding Jorge's code correctly, it looks as though he's gathering information about number of links by checking the generated NEATNetworks, rather than the NEATIndividuals. Because the NEATNetwork doesn't include disabled genes, the behavior Jorge's describing isn't out of the ordinary. That's assuming I've understood everything.
