Nowadays, optimization techniques are required in various engineering domains in order to find optimal solutions for complex problems. As a result, there is a growing tendency among scientists to enhance existing nature-inspired algorithms using various evolutionary strategies and to develop new nature-inspired optimization methods that can properly explore the feature space. The recently designed nature-inspired metaheuristic, named the Golden Jackal Optimization (GJO) algorithm, was inspired by the collaborative hunting actions of the golden jackal in nature to solve various challenging problems. However, like other approaches, the GJO has the limitations of poor exploitation ability, ease to get stuck in a local optimal region, and an improper balancing of exploration and exploitation. To overcome these limitations, this paper proposes a novel contribution to GJO based on a new technique, namely the fast random opposition-based learning Golden Jackal Optimization algorithm (FROBL-GJO). The FROBL technique is mainly inspired by opposition-based learning (OBL) and random opposition-based learning (ROBL) techniques to enhance the optimization precision and convergence speed of the GJO algorithm. Furthermore, two other models, such as OBL-GJO and ROBL-GJO, are also proposed for comparison purposes. To examine the proficiency of the newly proposed FROBL-GJO algorithm, it has been examined with several well-known existing meta-heuristic algorithms while solving the CEC-2005 and CEC-2019 benchmark test functions and real-life engineering problems. The experimental outcomes and statistical tests reveal the superior performance of the proposed FROBL-GJO in solving both global optimization and engineering design problems. Hence, the findings of benchmark functions and engineering problems endorse that the proposed FROBL-GJO algorithm can be considered a promising method for solving complex optimization problems.& COPY; 2023 Elsevier B.V.
