A New Algorithm for Constructing the Pareto Front of Bi-objective Optimization Problems

Here, scalarization techniques for multi-objective optimization problems are addressed. A new scalarization approach, called unified Pascoletti-Serafini approach, is utilized and a new algorithm to construct the Pareto front of a given bi-objective optimization problem is formulated. It is shown that we can restrict the parameters of the scalarized problem. The computed efficient points provide...

A New Control Chart to Monitor Mean Shifts of Bi-Variate Quality Control Processes

A New Infeasible Interior-Point Algorithm with Full Nesterov-Todd Step for Semi-Definite Optimization

  We present a new full Nesterov and Todd step infeasible interior-point algorithm for semi-definite optimization. The algorithm decreases the duality gap and the feasibility residuals at the same rate. In the algorithm, we construct strictly feasible iterates for a sequence of perturbations of the given problem and its dual problem. Every main iteration of the algorithm consists of a feasibili...

A fuzzy multi-objective linear programming approach for solving a new multi-objective job shop scheduling with sequence-dependent setup times

This paper presents a new mathematical model for a bi-objective job shop scheduling problem with sequence-dependent setup times that minimizes the weighted mean completion time and the weighted mean tardiness time. For solving this multi-objective model, we develop a fuzzy multi-objective linear programming (FMOLP) model. In this problem, a proposed FMOLP method is applied with respect to the o...

A New Model for Transportation Problem with Qualitative Data

 In today’s highly competitive market, the pressure on organizations to find a better way to create and deliver value to customers is mounting. The decision involves many quantitative and qualitative factors that may be conflicting in nature. Here, we present a new model for transportation problem with consideration of quantitative and qualitative data. In the model, we quantify the qua...
