Abstract

A modified variant of artificial bee colony (ABC) algorithms, called radial artificial bee colony (RABC) algorithm, was proposed. This modified method incorporated two novel strategies during the initialization of employed bees and the determination of new locations for scout bees. RABC was applied to solve well-known constrained and unconstrained problems. The statistical results of RABC were compared with those of the original ABC and a number of approaches from the past studies. The comparisons revealed that RABC was superior to its competitor in terms of accuracy, speed of convergence and consistency.
