In this paper, an adaptive modification rate artificial bee colony (AMR‐ABC) algorithm is proposed by incorporating a novel adaptive modification rate to adaptively balance exploration and exploitation to determine which parameters (or the number of parameters) to be updated in a solution during each iteration. The performance of the AMR‐ABC algorithm is compared to those the standard ABC algorithm and its two variants, and the Parks–McClellan algorithm for designing Type 3 (orders: 14, 26, and 38) and Type 4 (orders: 13, 25, and 37) linear phase FIR differentiators to evaluate their design capabilities. Design results have shown that the proposed AMR‐ABC algorithm (i) outperforms four other design algorithms with the lowest p ‐norm error in each of the six differentiator designs and (ii) is robust such that the same p ‐norm error solution with an equiripple amplitude response in each of the six differentiator designs can be obtained by repeating a design with a different population of randomly generated initial solutions. The filter coefficients of six linear phase FIR differentiator designs are given as benchmarks to compare the p ‐norm error performance of the AMR‐ABC algorithm to other algorithms. The AMR‐ABC algorithm is attractive to be used for optimisation in this and other design problems.
