Abstract

One of the most efficient penalty based methods to solve constrained optimization problems is the augmented Lagrangian algorithm. This paper presents a constrained optimization algorithm to solve continuous constrained global optimization problems. The proposed algorithm integrates the benefit of the continuous ant colony ( $$\hbox {ACO}_\mathrm{R}$$ ACO R ) capability for discovering the global optimum with the effective behavior of the Lagrangian multiplier method to handle constraints. This method is tested on 13 well-known benchmark functions and compared with four other state-of-the-art algorithms. Copyright Springer Science+Business Media New York 2015
