چکیده

In this paper, a fuzzy quadratic minimum spanning tree problem is formulated as expected value model, chance-constrained programming and dependent-chance programming according to different decision criteria. Then the crisp equivalents are derived when the fuzzy costs are characterized by trapezoidal fuzzy numbers. Furthermore, a simulation-based genetic algorithm using Prüfer number representation is designed for solving the proposed fuzzy programming models as well as their crisp equivalents. Finally, a numerical example is provided for illustrating the effectiveness of the genetic algorithm. 2004 Published by Elsevier Inc.

A linearization method for quadratic minimum spanning tree problem

The crisp and fuzzy quadratic minimum spanning tree (Q-MST) problem can be formulated as a linear model, and thus, the global optimum can be obtained by the proposed method. Conventionally, the Q-MST problem, which contains a quadratic term in the objective function, is solved by genetic algorithm and other heuristic methods. However, these methods cannot guarantee to obtain a global optimal so...

A Metaheuristic Algorithm for the Minimum Routing Cost Spanning Tree Problem

The routing cost of a spanning tree in a weighted and connected graph is defined as the total length of paths between all pairs of vertices. The objective of the minimum routing cost spanning tree problem is to find a spanning tree such that its routing cost is minimum. This is an NP-Hard problem that we present a GRASP with path-relinking metaheuristic algorithm for it. GRASP is a multi-start ...

Uncertain Quadratic Minimum Spanning Tree Problem

The quadratic minimum spanning tree problem is to find a spanning tree on a graph that minimizes a quadratic objective function of the edge weights. In this paper, the quadratic minimum spanning tree problem is concerned on the graph with edge weights being assumed as uncertain variables. The notion of the uncertain quadratic -minimum spanning tree is introduced by using the uncertain chance co...

Special classes of mathematical programming models with fuzzy random variables

In this paper, we will discuss two special classes of mathematical programming models with fuzzy random variables. In the first model, a linear programming problem with fuzzy decision variables and fuzzy random coefficients is introduced. Then an algorithm is developed to solve the model based on fuzzy optimization method and fuzzy ranking method. In the second model, a fuzzy random quadratic s...

Models for inverse minimum spanning tree problem with fuzzy edge weights

An inverse minimum spanning tree problem is to make the least modification on the edge weights such that a predetermined spanning tree is a minimum spanning tree with respect to the new edge weights. In this paper, a type of fuzzy inverse minimum spanning tree problem is introduced from a LAN reconstruction problem, where the weights of edges are assumed to be fuzzy variables. The concept of fu...
