Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a mathematical method to evaluate the performance of decision-making units (DMU). In the performance evaluation of an organization based on the classical theory of DEA, input and output data are assumed to be deterministic, while in the real world, the observed values of the inputs and outputs data are mainly fuzzy and random. A normal distribution is a contin...

The high complexity of the supply chain network and the characteristics of products made supply chain management of agricultural products were more susceptible to the risks emergence of loss. Therefore, it is required to develop a mechanism for price negotiation which distributes the risks fairly for each stakeholder in the supply chain. In addition it is necessary to identify and evaluate supp...

There is a growing recognition that discrete choice models are capable of providing a more realistic picture of route choice behavior. In particular, influential factors other than travel time that are found to affect the choice of route trigger the application of random utility models in the route choice literature. This paper focuses on path-based, logit-type stochastic route choice models, i...

conclusions the use of sof + pr regimen or ldv/sof can significantly reduce the incidence of complications associated with the disease. for example, short and long-term outcomes are better than the current drug regimens for hcv genotype 1 patients in all stages of the disease. objectives this study is aimed to assess the cost-effectiveness of the three drug regimens of pegylated interferon and ...

in applications there occur different forms of uncertainty. the twomost important types are randomness (stochastic variability) and imprecision(fuzziness). in modelling, the dominating concept to describe uncertainty isusing stochastic models which are based on probability. however, fuzzinessis not stochastic in nature and therefore it is not considered in probabilisticmodels.since many years t...

Fuzzy random variable is a combination of fuzzy variable and random variable, and can characterize both fuzziness and randomness in the real world. The mean chance of a fuzzy random event is an important concept in fuzzy random optimization, just like the probability of a stochastic event in stochastic optimization and the credibility of a fuzzy event in fuzzy optimization. In fuzzy random prog...

This article deals with an economic order quantity (EOQ) inventory model for items with imperfect quality in fuzzy stochastic environment, wherein shortages are allowed and completely backlogged. Fuzzy stochastic environment means linguistic ‘impreciseness’ and statistical ‘uncertainty’ both appear simultaneously. Due to uncertain demand trend, imperfect production process, natural disaster etc...
