When a researcher presents a new algorithm, it is natural to compare it to the existing ones in order to prove that the new one is better. The authors of this book describe in detail the methodology called deep statistical comparison that allows to compare the metaheuristic stochastic optimization methods. The book consists of three parts. After a brief introduction in Chapter 1, in Chapters 2--4 the authors present the basic issues in optimization, benchmarking and statistical analysis. Chapters 5--7 present the deep statistical comparison applied to metaheuristic stochastic programming algorithms. Finally, in Chapter 8 the authors describe the online tool for deep statistical comparison. The book is well written and the presentation is easy to follow. It will be useful to students and researchers dealing with metaheuristic stochastic optimization, but also to practitioners who want to know how to choose the best methods to solve the real-life problems they face.
