# Using ES-HyperNEAT to try to solve the Bipedal walker.
# This attempt was not successful. Adjustment of hyperparameters is likely needed.

# A neural network is trained using NeuroEvolution of Augmenting Topologies
# The idea is from the paper: "Evolving Neural Networks through Augmenting Topologies"
# This gist is using MultiNEAT (http://multineat.com/)

Hello. Nice project you have here. congratulations.
I tried to pickle the best genome and got this error: "TypeError: no default reduce due to non-trivial cinit". Can you please help me solve it please?
Thank you
