“…In order to compare our results obtained with the test system (IEEE 14‐bus) used in simulation with those of other references, some recent algorithms published in the literature were employed in this context, namely: PSO, Whale optimisation algorithm (WOA), ALO and CSA, PSO, DE, Interior point method (IPM), PSO with cauchy mutation (PSO‐CM) and adaptive mutation (PSO‐AM), Modified DE (MDE), Artificial bee colony (ABC) and (DE–ABC), Ant colony optimization (ACO), Modified Gaussian barebones teaching learning‐based optimization (MGBTLBO), Gravitational search algorithm (GSA), GSA with conditional selection strategies (GSA‐CSS), improved GSA‐CSS (IGSA‐CSS), GAMS, WOA . To the best of the authors' knowledge, no literature has carried out on stochastic ORPD using quantum‐behaved particle swarm optimization differential mutation (QPSODM) algorithm.…”
