A unified ant colony optimization algorithm for continuous optimization

•We propose UACOR, a unified ACO algorithm for continuous optimization.•UACOR integrates algorithmic components from three previous ACO algorithms.•Automatic algorithm configuration automatically derives new ACO algorithms.•The high potential of ACO algorithms for continuous optimization is shown.•A...
