	%X A feature weighting and selection method is proposed
which uses the structure of a weightless neuron and exploits the
principles that govern the operation of Genetic Algorithms and
Evolution. Features are coded onto chromosomes in a novel way
which allows weighting information regarding the features to be
directly inferred from the gene values. The proposed method is
significant in that it addresses several problems concerned with
algorithms for feature selection and weighting as well as providing
significant advantages such as speed, simplicity and suitability for
real-time systems.
