To overcome the limitation of single search strategy of grey wolf optimizer (GWO) in solving various function optimization problems, we propose a multi-strategy ensemble GWO (MEGWO) in this paper. The proposed MEGWO incorporates three different search strategies to update the solutions. Firstly, the...
