Hybrid ant colony optimization algorithms for mixed discrete–continuous optimization problems

► This paper presents three new hybrid ACO algorithms for constrained optimization problems. ► All three algorithms are based on ACOR. ► Fourteen problems selected from various domains were tested. ► All three algorithms greatly outperform the original ACOR. ► This paper also investigated the relati...
