This paper discusses two efficient collocation methods for solving the Hammerstein integral equations on the semi-infinite domain, where the underlying solutions decay to zero at infinity. These methods are based upon modified Legendre rational and exponential functions, and reduce the Hammerstein integral equation to a nonlinear algebraic system. The error between the approximate and exact solutions in the usual -norm is estimated. Finally, some numerical experiments are presented to examine and demonstrate the effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed methods in comparison to other approaches.
