Evolutionary Intelligence

This book provides a highly accessible introduction to evolutionary computation. It details basic concepts, highlights several applications of evolutionary computation, and includes solved problems using MATLAB software and C/C++. This book also outlines some ideas on when genetic algorithms and genetic programming should be used. The most difficult part of using a genetic algorithm is how to encode the population, and the author discusses various ways to do this.
