in this paper, the portfolio selection problem is considered, where fuzziness and randomness appear simultaneously in optimization process. since return and dividend play an important role in such problems, a new model is developed in a mixed environment by incorporating fuzzy random variable as multi-objective nonlinear model. then a novel interactive approach is proposed to determine the pref...

Meta-heuristics have already received considerable attention in various fields of engineering optimization problems. Each of them employes some key features best suited for a specific class of problems due to its type of search space and constraints. The present work develops a Pseudo-random Directional Search, PDS, for adaptive combination of such heuristic operators. It utilizes a short term...

In this paper, we obtain some Rosenthal’s type inequalities for negatively orthant dependent (NOD) random variables.

Let be a stationary sequence of pair wise negative quadrant dependent random variables with survival function {,1}nXn?F(x)=P[X>x]. The empirical survival function ()nFx based on 12,,...,nXXX is proposed as an estimator for ()nFx. Strong consistency and point wise as well as uniform of ()nFx are discussed

In this paper, we extend and generalize some recent results on the strong laws of large numbers (SLLN) for pairwise independent random variables [3]. No assumption is made concerning the existence of independence among the random variables (henceforth r.v.’s). Also Chandra’s result on Cesàro uniformly integrable r.v.’s is extended.
