The Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) is to find a Hamiltonian tour of minimal length on a fully connected graph. The TSP is a NP-Complete, and there is no polynomial algorithm to find the optimal result. Many bio-inspired algorithms has been proposed to address this problem. Generally, generic algorithm (GA), ant colony optimization (ACO) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) are three typical bio-inspired algorithm for TSP. In this section we will give a brief introduction to the above three bio-inspired algorithms and their application to the TSP.
