C# Class Encog.Neural.Networks.Training.Strategy.HybridStrategy

A hybrid stragey allows a secondary training algorithm to be used. Once the primary algorithm is no longer improving by much, the secondary will be used. Using simulated annealing in as a secondary to one of the propagation methods is often a very efficient combination as it can help the propagation method escape a local minimum. This is particularly true with backpropagation.
