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...

convexity theory and duality theory are important issues in math- ematical programming. within the framework of credibility theory, this paper rst introduces the concept of convex fuzzy variables and some basic criteria. furthermore, a convexity theorem for fuzzy chance constrained programming is proved by adding some convexity conditions on the objective and constraint functions. finally,...

abstract it is the purpose of this article to introduce a linear approximation technique for solving a fractional chance constrained programming (cc) problem. for this purpose, a fuzzy goal programming model of the equivalent deterministic form of the fractional chance constrained programming is provided and then the process of defuzzification and linearization of the problem is started. a samp...

in this paper, a model of an optimal control problem with chance constraints is introduced. the parametersof the constraints are fuzzy, random or fuzzy random variables. todefuzzify the constraints, we consider possibility levels.  bychance-constrained programming the chance constraints are converted to crisp constraints which are neither fuzzy nor stochastic and then the resulting classical op...

stochastic approach to vehicle routing problem: development and theories abstract in this article, a chance constrained (ccp) formulation of the vehicle routing problem (vrp) is proposed. the reality is that once we convert some special form of probabilistic constraint into their equivalent deterministic form then a nonlinear constraint generates. knowing that reliable computer software for lar...

determination a sequence of extracting ore is one of the most important problems in mine annual production scheduling. production scheduling affects mining performance especially in a poly-metallic open pit mine with considering the imposed operational and physical constraints mandated by high levels of reliability in relation to the obtained actual results. one of the important operational con...

Classical automated test assembly (ATA) methods assume fixed and known coefficients for the constraints objective function. This hypothesis is not true estimates of item response theory parameters, which are crucial elements in classical models. To account uncertainty ATA, we propose a chance-constrained version maximin ATA model, allows maximizing α-quantile sampling distribution information f...
