Ant colony system: a cooperative learning approach to the traveling salesman problem

TL;DR: The results show that the ACS outperforms other nature-inspired algorithms such as simulated annealing and evolutionary computation, and it is concluded comparing ACS-3-opt, a version of the ACS augmented with a local search procedure, to some of the best performing algorithms for symmetric and asymmetric TSPs.

Handbook of Genetic Algorithms

TL;DR: This book sets out to explain what genetic algorithms are and how they can be used to solve real-world problems, and introduces the fundamental genetic algorithm (GA), and shows how the basic technique may be applied to a very simple numerical optimisation problem.
