Isn't this basically NEAT (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuroevolution_of_augmenting_t...), except in NEAT the network is evolved with a genetic algorithm.

Well, no, it looks like this aims to allow you to easily implement such an algorithm.

I think NEAT has the advantage here of figuring out a good topology for you.
