Popis: The Gazelle Optimization Algorithm (GOA) is an innovative nature-inspired metaheuristic algorithm, designed to mimic the agile and efficient hunting strategies of gazelles. Despite its promising performance in solving complex optimization problems, there is still a significant scope for enhancing its efficiency and robustness. This paper introduces several novel variants of GOA, integrating adaptive strategy, Levy flight strategy, Roulette wheel selection strategy, and random walk strategy. These enhancements aim to address the limitations of the original GOA and improve its performance in diverse optimization scenarios. The proposed algorithms are rigorously tested on CEC 2014 and CEC 2017 benchmark functions, five engineering problems, and a Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) minimization problem. The results demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed variants compared to the original GOA, providing valuable insights into their applicability and effectiveness.
