<p>In <a href="https://github.com/mlpack/mlpack/pull/686#discussion_r70910848">src/mlpack/methods/ne/neat.hpp</a>:</p>
<pre style='color:#555'>&gt; +  void InitPopulation() {
&gt; +    aPopulation = Population(aSeedGenome, aPopulationSize);
&gt; +  }
&gt; +
&gt; +  // Reproduce next generation of population.
&gt; +  void Reproduce() {
&gt; +    // keep best genome.
&gt; +    Genome lastBestGenome = aPopulation.BestGenome();
&gt; +
&gt; +    // Remove stale species.
&gt; +    if (aPopulation.aSpecies.size() &gt; 10) {
&gt; +      RemoveStaleSpecies(aPopulation);
&gt; +    }
&gt; +
&gt; +    // Remove weak genomes in each species.
&gt; +    CullSpecies(aPopulation, aCullSpeciesPercentage);
</pre>
<p>My current plan is keep the functions, but when we do the Reproduce(), we need further decision about whether to use it. Organizing these steps in Reproduce() are flexible.</p>
