Now, the 0-1 knapsack problem has a wide range of applications in real life, but it is a typical NP hard problem. thereby, solving the 0-1 knapsack problem has been widely concerned by many researchers. This paper puts forward an improved monkey algorithm where uniform distribution’s Kent chaotic map is adopted as the initial feasible solution of the algorithm, and the descending factor is used as the step size in the climb process of the algorithm. Finally, in numerical simulation, a 0-1 knapsack problem is solved using the presented method and other existing methods to show that the given method is effective.
