CreateNetworkDefinition() public method

Create a network definition by querying the provided IBlackBox (typically a CPPN) with the substrate connection endpoints.
public CreateNetworkDefinition ( IBlackBox blackbox, bool lengthCppnInput ) : INetworkDefinition
blackbox IBlackBox The HyperNEAT CPPN that defines the strength of connections between nodes on the substrate.
lengthCppnInput bool Optionally we provide a connection length input to the CPPN.
return INetworkDefinition
