A weighted linear regression model with impercise response and p-real explanatory variables is analyzed. The LR fuzzy random variable is introduced and a metric is suggested for coping with this kind of variables. A least square solution for estimating the parameters of the model is derived. The result are illustrated by the means of some case studies.

Supplier selection and material procurement planning are the most important issues in supply chain management. This decision is complicated when the buyers face with discount price schemes. In real situation, each supplier may apply different methods such as different types of discount schedules and various types of payment in order to increase market share. In this situation, buyers try to sel...

this paper investigates the problem of just-in-time permutation flow shop scheduling with limited buffers and linear job deterioration in an uncertain environment. the fuzzy set theory is applied to describe this situation. a novel mixed-integer nonlinear program is presented to minimize the weighted sum of fuzzy earliness and tardiness penalties. due to the computational complexities, the prop...

In this paper, the concepts of positive dependence and linearlypositive quadrant dependence are introduced for fuzzy random variables. Also,an inequality is obtained for partial sums of linearly positive quadrant depen-dent fuzzy random variables. Moreover, a weak law of large numbers is estab-lished for linearly positive quadrant dependent fuzzy random variables. Weextend some well known inequ...

By fuzzy random programming, we mean the optimization theory dealing with fuzzy random decision problems. This paper presents a new concept of chance of fuzzy random events and then constructs a general framework of fuzzy random chance-constrained programming (CCP). We also design a spectrum of fuzzy random simulations for computing uncertain functions arising in the area of fuzzy random progra...

In this paper, we introduce and study a random variational-like inclusion and its corresponding random proximal operator equation for random fuzzy mappings. It is established that the random variational-like inclusion problem for random fuzzy mappings is equivalent to a random fixed point problem. We also establish a relationship between random variational-like inclusion and random proximal ope...

An inventory model for deteriorating items over a fuzzy random planning horizon incorporating inflation and time value of money is studied. It is assumed that planning horizon follows exponential distribution with imprecise parameter. The model is formulated using cost minimization principle. As the fuzzy cost cannot be minimized directly, the possibilistic mean value of the fuzzy cost is found...

Fuzzy random variable is a measurable function from a probability space to the set of fuzzy variables, while random fuzzy variable is a function from a credibility space to the set of random variables. The concepts of independent and identically distributed fuzzy random variables and random fuzzy variables are presented, and some useful properties are discussed.

Based upon previous studies on laws of large numbers for fuzzy, random, fuzzy random and random fuzzy variables, We go further to explore weak law of large numbers(WLLN) for hybrid variables comprising fuzzy random variables and random fuzzy variables. we mainly prove Chebyshev WLLN, Poisson WLLN, Bernoulli WLLN, Markov WLLN and Khintchin WLLN for hybrid variables based on chance measure.
