چکیده

This study first reviews fuzzy random Portfolio selection theory and describes the concept of portfolio optimization model as a useful instrument for helping finance practitioners and researchers. Second, this paper specifically aims at applying possibility-based models for transforming the fuzzy random variables to the linear programming. The harmony search algorithm approaches to resolve the portfolio selection problem with the objective of return maximization is applied. We provide a numerical example to illustrate the proposed model. The results show that the evolutionary method of this paper with harmony search algorithm, can consistently handle the practical portfolio selection problem. Keywords— portfolio Selection, Harmony search algorithm, Possibility-based model, Fuzzy random variables.

MEAN-ABSOLUTE DEVIATION PORTFOLIO SELECTION MODEL WITH FUZZY RETURNS

In this paper, we consider portfolio selection problem in which security returns are regarded as fuzzy variables rather than random variables. We first introduce a concept of absolute deviation for fuzzy variables and prove some useful properties, which imply that absolute deviation may be used to measure risk well. Then we propose two mean-absolute deviation models by defining risk as abs...

SHAPE OPTIMIZATION OF STRUCTURES BY MODIFIED HARMONY SEARCH

The main aim of the present study is to propose a modified harmony search (MHS) algorithm for size and shape optimization of structures. The standard harmony search (HS) algorithm is conceptualized using the musical process of searching for a perfect state of the harmony. It uses a stochastic random search instead of a gradient search. The proposed MHS algorithm is designed based on elitism. In...
