Hands-On Neuroevolution with Python

Working environment setup

The working environment for the experiment should include all dependencies and can be created using Anaconda with the following commands:

$ conda create --name maze_ns_neat python=3.5$ conda activate maze_ns_neat$ pip install neat-python==0.92 $ conda install matplotlib$ conda install graphviz$ conda install python-graphviz

These commands create and activate a maze_ns_neat virtual environment with Python 3.5. After that, the NEAT-Python library with version 0.92 is installed, along with other dependencies used by our visualization utilities.
