Teaching learning based optimization (TLBO) algorithm is a distinguished nature-inspired population-based meta-heuristic, which is basically designed for unconstrained optimization. TLBO mimics teaching learning process through which learners acquire knowledge from their teachers, and improve their results/grades, accordingly. Stochastic ranking (SR) is a constrained handlingtechnique (CHT), which produces greediness among solutions to improve their fitness values and feasibility. violationconstrainthandling (VCH) technique produces more feasibility among the existing superiority of feasibility CHTs due to its additional factor of ranking based on the number of constraints violated (NCV). This work brings in a new variant of SR, namely hybrid stochastic ranking (HSR), which combines SR and VCH. For constrained optimization, the integration of some CHT with TLBO is essential. In this paper, HSR is integrated with TLBO and a new constrained version of TLBO called HSR-TLBO is designed. The efficiency of HSR-TLBO is checked on constrained test functions of the suit CEC 2017. The experimental results show that HSR-TLBO got prominent position when compared and ranked with the top four papers and our two newly designed constrained variants of TLBO, MSR-TLBO and MVCH-TLBO, based on the provided budget and ranking criteria of the mentioned suit.
