Three types of fuzzy random programming for capacitated location-allocation problem with fuzzy random demands are proposed according to different criteria, including the expected value model, chanceconstrained programming and dependent-chance programming. Finally, integrating the network simplex algorithm, fuzzy random simulation and genetic algorithm, a hybrid intelligent algorithm is produced...

In this paper, we will discuss two special classes of mathematical programming models with fuzzy random variables. In the first model, a linear programming problem with fuzzy decision variables and fuzzy random coefficients is introduced. Then an algorithm is developed to solve the model based on fuzzy optimization method and fuzzy ranking method. In the second model, a fuzzy random quadratic s...

Environmental risk assessment is an essential element in any decision-making process in order to minimize the effects of human activities on the environment. Unfortunately, often environmental data tends to be vague and imprecise, so uncertainty is associated with any study related with these kind of data. Essentially, uncertainty in risk assessment may have two origins – randomness and incompl...

In this paper we introduce the notion of levelwise convergence of sequence of fuzzy random variables. We derive equivalent conditions for left quasi uniform convergence of fuzzy random variables. Conditions are obtained for eventually equi-right continuity for the sequence of fuzzy random variables. A necessary and sufficient condition is obtained under which for a sequence of fuzzy random vari...

Mathematical models of physical systems often contain parameters with an imprecisely known and uncertain character. It is quite common to represent these parameters by means of random variables. Numerous methods have been developed to compute accurate approximations to solutions of equations with such parameters. This approach, however, may not be entirely justified when the uncertainty is due ...

Clouds are a concept for uncertainty mediating between the concept of a fuzzy set and that of a probability distribution. A cloud is to a random variable more or less what an interval is to a number. We discuss the basic theoretical and numerical properties of clouds, and relate them to histograms, cumulative distribution functions, and likelihood ratios. We show how to compute nonlinear transf...

the starting point of this paper is given by priestley’s papers, where a theory of representation of distributive lattices is presented. the purpose of this paper is to develop a representation theory of fuzzy distributive lattices in the finite case. in this way, some results of priestley’s papers are extended. in the main theorem, we show that the category of finite fuzzy priestley space...

In 2006, Espinola and Kirk made a useful contribution on combining fixed point theoryand graph theory. Recently, Reich and Zaslavski studied a new inexact iterative scheme for fixed points of contractive and nonexpansive multifunctions. In this paper, by using  the main idea of their work and the idea of combining fixed point theory on intuitionistic fuzzy metric spaces and graph theory, ...

The aim of this paper is to deal with a multiobjective linear programming problem with fuzzy random coefficients. Some crisp equivalent models are presented and a traditional algorithm based on an interactive fuzzy satisfying method is proposed to obtain the decision maker’s satisfying solution. In addition, the technique of fuzzy random simulation is adopted to handle general fuzzy random obje...

using greedy clustering method to solve capacitated location-routing problem with fuzzy demands abstract in this paper, the capacitated location routing problem with fuzzy demands (clrp_fd) is considered. in clrp_fd, facility location problem (flp) and vehicle routing problem (vrp) are observed simultaneously. indeed the vehicles and the depots have a predefined capacity to serve the customerst...
