They are not the same. GA is a genetic algorithm framework and NeuralNetwork 
is a neural network (which seems to have some special features to deal with 
genes as input). They are both potentially interesting (providing that they 
actually work) but it's a complete mystery how they are to be used. Does 
anybody know who implemented these modules?
