We propose a Mamdani-Type Fuzzy Inference based posterior decision-making approach to multi-objective diet optimization problem. optimize the problem with evolutionary algorithms that result in tens/hundreds of non-dominated solutions which is too large pick one them by decision-maker. Even though all are optimized for objectives simultaneously, not objective functions may be equally important ...

Abstract In many real-world scenarios, the utility of a user is derived from single execution policy. this case, to apply multi-objective reinforcement learning, expected returns must be optimised. Various scenarios exist where user’s preferences over objectives (also known as function) are unknown or difficult specify. such set optimal policies learned. However, settings maximised have been la...

    Supplier selection,   Multi-objective decision making,   Fuzzy Compromise programming,   Supply chain management,   Quantity discount .   Supplier selection is naturally a complex multi-objective problem including both quantitative and qualitative factors. This paper deals with this issue from a new view point. A quantity discount situation, which plays a role of motivator for buyer, is con...

The traditional way of designing energy pile system is mostly single domain/objective oriented, which lacks means to coherently consider different while relevant factors across domains. cost for life cycle design, construction and maintenance, return investment, CO2 emission related sustainable requirements, so on also need be considered, in a systematic manner, along with the main functional d...

the non-definite multi-attribute decision making problem is the further expansion of research to the traditional multi-attribute decision making problem. In the actual decision-making, because of policy-making question's complexity, decision-making information acquisition costs and other reasons, the decision information which the policy-maker can obtain are mostly ambiguous, so in the real lif...

The optimization is one of the challenging problems in power system. The optimization sometimes is mainly restricted to the minimization of the operating cost. However, the operation of power plants, mostly thermal units, results into various types of emissions like SOx, NOx and COx etc. The environmental concern dictates the minimization of the emissions by the thermal plant. Individually, if ...
