What changed
Combined historical innovation markings, speciation and incremental topology growth with weight evolution in NEAT.
Scientific scope
The record is the exact two-author 2002 Evolutionary Computation article. Its benchmark evidence is not universal superiority, and later HyperNEAT, novelty search and other neuroevolution systems remain separate.
