In this paper we propose a mechanism for enhancing the performance of the Artificial Bee Colony Algorithm (ABCA) by making use low discrepancy Sobol sequence. The performance of the proposed Sobol sequence guided ABC (S-ABC) is analyzed over several benchmark functions and also compared to that of basic ABC. The empirical results show that the presence of low discrepancy sequence like that of Sobol, significantly improves the performance of the basic ABCA.
