چکیده

Consider a random vector, and assume that a set of its moments information is known. Among all possible distributions obeying the given moments constraints, the envelope of the probability distribution functions is introduced in this paper as distributional robust probability function. We show that such a function is computable in the bi-variate case under some conditions. Connections to the existing results in the literature and its applications in risk management are discussed as well.

MODELLING AND ANALYSIS OF A DISCRETE-TIME PRIORITY QUEUING COMPUTER NETWORK WITH PRIORITY JUMPS USING PROBABILITY GENERATING FUNCTIONS

Priority queues have a great importance in the study of computer communication networks in which different types of traffic require different quality of service standards. The discrete-time non-preemptive priority queuing model with priority jumps is proposed in this paper. On the basis of probability generating functions mean system contents and mean queuing delay characteristics are obtained....

Robust Counterpart Optimization: Uncertainty Sets, Formulations and Probabilistic Guarantees

Robust counterpart optimization techniques are studied in this paper. Different uncertainty sets, including those studied in literature (i.e., interval set; combined interval and ellipsoidal set; combined interval and polyhedral set) and new ones (i.e., adjustable box; pure ellipsoidal; pure polyhedral; combined interval, ellipsoidal, and polyhedral set) are studied in this work and their geome...

Multiobjective Imperialist Competitive Evolutionary Algorithm for Solving Nonlinear Constrained Programming Problems

Nonlinear constrained programing problem (NCPP) has been arisen in diverse range of sciences such as portfolio, economic management etc.. In this paper, a multiobjective imperialist competitive evolutionary algorithm for solving NCPP is proposed. Firstly, we transform the NCPP into a biobjective optimization problem. Secondly, in order to improve the diversity of evolution country swarm, and he...

An Enhanced HL-RF Method for the Computation of Structural Failure Probability Based On Relaxed Approach

The computation of structural failure probability is vital importance in the reliability analysis and may be carried out on the basis of the first-order reliability method using various mathematical iterative approaches such as Hasofer-Lind and Rackwitz-Fiessler (HL-RF). This method may not converge in complicated problems and nonlinear limit state functions, which usually shows itself in the f...

Distributionally Robust Monte Carlo Simulation: a Tutorial Survey

Whereas the use of traditional Monte Carlo simulation requires probability distributions for the uncertain parameters entering the system, distributionally robust Monte Carlo simulation does not. According to this new theory, instead of carrying out simulations using some rather arbitrary probability distribution such as Gaussian for the uncertain parameters, we provide a rather different presc...
