majority of models in location literature are based on assumptions such as point demand, absence of competitors, as well as monopoly in location, products, and services. however in real-world applications, these assumptions are not well-matched with reality. in this study, a new mixed integer nonlinear programming model based on weighted goal programming approach is proposed to maximize the cap...

in traditional portfolio selection model coefficients often are certain and deterministic, but in real world these coefficients are probabilistic. so decision maker cannot estimate them exactly. financial optimization is one of the most attractive areas in decision under uncertainty. in the portfolio selection problem the decision maker considers simultaneously conflicting objectives such as ra...

we present a new model and a new approach for solving fuzzylinear programming (flp) problems with various utilities for the satisfactionof the fuzzy constraints. the model, constructed as a multi-objective linearprogramming problem, provides flexibility for the decision maker (dm), andallows for the assignment of distinct weights to the constraints and the objectivefunction. the desired solutio...

In this paper, we integrate goal programming (GP), Taylor Series, Kuhn-Tucker conditions and Penalty Function approaches to solve linear fractional bi-level programming (LFBLP)problems. As we know, the Taylor Series is having the property of transforming fractional functions to a polynomial. In the present article by Taylor Series we obtain polynomial objective functions which are equivalent...

the fuzzy linear regression model with fuzzy input-output data andcrisp coefficients is studied in this paper. a linear programmingmodel based on goal programming is proposed to calculate theregression coefficients. in contrast with most of the previous works, theproposed model takes into account the centers of fuzzy data as animportant feature as well as their spreads in the procedure ofconstr...
