Large-scale decomposition for successive quadratic programming

An iterative method for tri-level quadratic fractional programming problems using fuzzy goal programming approach

Tri-level optimization problems are optimization problems with three nested hierarchical structures, where in most cases conflicting objectives are set at each level of hierarchy. Such problems are common in management, engineering designs and in decision making situations in general, and are known to be strongly NP-hard. Existing solution methods lack universality in solving these types of pro...

Quadratic bi-level programming problems: a fuzzy goal programming approach

This paper presents a fuzzy goal programming (FGP) methodology for solving bi-level quadratic programming (BLQP) problems. In the FGP model formulation, firstly the objectives are transformed into fuzzy goals (membership functions) by means of assigning an aspiration level to each of them, and suitable membership function is defined for each objectives, and also the membership functions for vec...

A simplicial decomposition framework for large scale convex quadratic programming

In this paper, we analyze in depth a simplicial decomposition like algorithmic framework for large scale convex quadratic programming. In particular, we first propose two tailored strategies for handling the master problem. Then, we describe a few techniques for speeding up the solution of the pricing problem. We report extensive numerical experiments on both real portfolio optimization and gen...

A NEW APPROACH FOR SOLVING FULLY FUZZY QUADRATIC PROGRAMMING PROBLEMS

Quadratic programming (QP) is an optimization problem wherein one minimizes (or maximizes) a quadratic function of a finite number of decision variable subject to a finite number of linear inequality and/ or equality constraints. In this paper, a quadratic programming problem (FFQP) is considered in which all cost coefficients, constraints coefficients, and right hand side are characterized by ...
