“…Greedy strategy based self-adaption ant colony algorithm is introduced for the 0-1 knapsack problem (Du & Zu, 2015). In addition, many algorithms have been prospered for solving 0-1 KP such as Cognitive discrete gravitational search algorithm(CDGSA) (Razavi & Sajedi, 2015), wind driven Optimization(WDO) (Zhou et al, 2017), greedy degree and expectation efficiency (Lv et al, 2016), improved monkey algorithm (IMA) (Zhou et al, 2016a), monogamous pairs genetic algorithm (MPGA) (Lim et al, 2016), hybrid greedy and particle swarm (GPSO) (Nguyen, Wang & Truong, 2016), Quantum inspired social evolution (QSE) algorithm (Pavithr, 2016), binary particle swarm optimization based on the surrogate information with proportional acceleration coefficients (Lin et al, 2016), complex-valued encoding bat algorithm (Zhou et al, 2016b), cohort intelligence (CI) algorithm (Kulkarni et al, 2017), Migrating birds optimization (MBO) algorithm (Ulker & Tongur, 2017), binary flower pollination algorithm (BFPA) (Abdel-Basset et al, 2018a), binary bat algorithm (BBA) (Rizk-Allah et al, 2018), Social-Spider Optimization(SSO) Algorithm Nguyen et al, 2017), binary monarch butterfly optimization(BMBO) (Feng et al, 2016a), Binary Dragonfly Algorithm(BDA) (Abdel-Basset at al., 2017), Binary Fisherman Search (BFS) algorithm (Cobos et al, 2016),elite opposition-flower pollination algorithm (EOFPA) (Abdel-Basset et al, 2018b), Opposition-based learning monarch butterfly optimization with Gaussian perturbation(OLMBO) (Feng et al, 2017). In respect of the importance of knapsack problem in practical applications, developing new algorithms to solve large-scale types of knapsack problem applications undoubtedly becomes a true challenge.…”
