The main aim of this paper is to deal with a fuzzy version of Farkas lemma involving trapezoidal fuzzy numbers. In turns to that the fuzzy linear programming and duality theory on these problems can be used to provide a constructive proof for Farkas lemma. Keywords Farkas Lemma, Fuzzy Linear Programming, Duality, Ranking Functions.

in this paper, a new method is proposed to find the fuzzy optimal solution of fully fuzzy linear bilevel programming (fflblp) problems by representing all the parameters as triangular fuzzy numbers. in the proposed method, the given fflblp problem is decomposed into three crisp linear programming (clp) problems with bounded variables constraints, the three clp problems are solved separately and...

recently, gasimov and yenilmez proposed an approach for solving two kinds of fuzzy linear programming (flp) problems. through the approach, each flp problem is first defuzzified into an equivalent crisp problem which is non-linear and even non-convex. then, the crisp problem is solved by the use of the modified subgradient method. in this paper we will have another look at the earlier defuzzifi...

Traditional Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) models evaluate the efficiency of decision making units (DMUs) with common crisp input and output data. However, the data in real applications are often imprecise or ambiguous. This paper transforms fuzzy fractional DEA model constructed using fuzzy arithmetic, into the conventional crisp model. This transformation is performed considering the goal pr...

this paper presents a fuzzy goal programming (fgp) methodology for solving bi-level quadratic programming (blqp) problems. in the fgp model formulation, firstly the objectives are transformed into fuzzy goals (membership functions) by means of assigning an aspiration level to each of them, and suitable membership function is defined for each objectives, and also the membership functions for vec...

Quadratic programming (QP) is an optimization problem wherein one minimizes (or maximizes) a quadratic function of a finite number of decision variable subject to a finite number of linear inequality and/ or equality constraints. In this paper, a quadratic programming problem (FFQP) is considered in which all cost coefficients, constraints coefficients, and right hand side are characterized by ...

logistics outsourcing has been at the top of the management agenda during recent decades. the selection of the proper service supplier is the key to success in logistic outsourcing firms could select the right supplier by applying appropriate methods and selection criteria. in this paper a new framework is proposed on the basis of weighted additive fuzzy programming approach and linear programm...

Fuzzy Linear Programming models and methods has been one ofthe most and well studied topics inside the broad area of Soft Computing. Itsapplications as well as practical realizations can be found in all the real worldareas. In this paper a basic introduction to the main models and methods infuzzy mathematical programming, with special emphasis on those developedby the authors, is presented. As ...

many ranking methods have been proposed so far. however, there is yet no method that can always give a satisfactory solution to every situation; some are counterintuitive, not discriminating; some use only the local information of fuzzy values; some produce different ranking for the same situation. for overcoming the above problems, we propose a new method for ranking fuzzy quantities based on ...
