چکیده

This paper presents a fuzzy approach for solving the bi-level integer linear fractional programming problem (BILFPP). At the first phase of the solution algorithm and to avoid the complexity of non convexity of this problem, we begin by finding the convex hull of its original set of constraints using the cutting-plane algorithm, and then the Charnes & Cooper transformation is used to convert the BILFPP to an equivalent bilevel linear programming problem (BLPP). At the second phase, a membership function is constructed to develop a fuzzy model for obtaining the optimal solution of the BLPP. Finally, an illustrative numerical example is provided to clarify the proposed approach.

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...
