**Returns:**
- n/a: Loads the model to `nn.model`.

### nn.mutate()
This method mutates the weights of a model.
```javascript
nn.mutate(rate, mutateFunction);
```
**Parameters:**
- **rate**: Optional. Number. The rate of mutation. Default is `0.1`.
- **mutateFunction**: Optional. Function. A function to mutate the weights. Default is a random Gaussian function.
**Returns:**
- n/a: Mutates the weights of the model.

### nn.crossover()
This method creates a new neural network with crossover.
```javascript
nn.crossover(other);
```
**Parameters:**
- **other**: Required. Object. Another neural network object.
**Returns:**
- **Object**: A new neural network object with the weights of the two models crossed over.
