Complexity of Bilevel Coherent Risk Programming

چکیده

This paper considers a bilevel programming approach to applying coherent risk measures to extended two-stage stochastic programming problems. This formulation technique avoids the time-inconsistency issues plaguing naive models and the incomposability issues which cause time-consistent formulations to have complicated, hard-to-explain objective functions. Unfortunately, the analysis here shows that such bilevel formulations, when using the standard mean-semideviation and average-value-at-risk measures, are NP-hard. While not necessarily indicating that solution of such models is impractical, these results suggest that it may prove difficult and will likely require some kind of implicit enumeration method.

Simulated Annealing Approach for Solving Bilevel Programming Problem

Bilevel programming, a tool for modeling decentralized decision problems, consists of the objective of the leader at its first level and that of the follower at the second level. Bilevel programming has been proved to be an Np-hard problem. Numerous algorithms have been developed for solving bilevel programming problems. These algorithms lack the required efficiency for solving a real problem. ...

A New Approach for Solving Fully Fuzzy Bilevel Linear Programming Problems

This paper addresses a type of fully fuzzy bilevel linear programming (FFBLP) wherein all the coefficients and decision variables in both the objective function and constraints are triangular fuzzy numbers. This paper proposes a new simple-structured, efficient method for FFBLP problems based on crisp bilevel programming that yields fuzzy optimal solutions with unconstraint variables and parame...

A New Method for Solving the Fully Interval Bilevel Linear Programming Problem with Equal Constraints

Most research on bilevel linear programming problem  is focused on its deterministic form, in which the coefficients and decision variables in the objective functions and constraints are assumed to be crisp. In fact, due to inaccurate information, it is difficult to know exactly values of coefficients that used to construct a bilevel model. The interval set theory is suitable for describing and...
