In this paper, the common centralized DEA models are extended to the bi-level centralized resource allocation (CRA) models based on revenue efficiency. Based on the Karush–Kuhn–Tucker (KKT) conditions, the bi-level CRA model is reduced to a one-level mathematical program subject to complementarity constraints (MPCC). A recurrent neural network is developed for solving this one-level mathematica...

In this paper, we consider a nonsmooth multiobjective semi-infinite programming problem with vanishing constraints (MOSIPVC). We introduce stationary conditions for the MOSIPVCs and establish the strong Karush-Kuhn-Tucker type sufficient optimality conditions for the MOSIPVC under generalized convexity assumptions.

The majority of research on bilevel programming has centered on the linear version of the problem in which only one leader and single follower are involved. This paper proposes a general model and Kuhn-Tucker approach for linear bilevel programming problems in which one leader and multiple follower(s) are involved, and there may (not) be sharing variables among the followers. Finally, a numeric...

We study the smoothing method for the solution of generalized semi-infinite optimization problems from (O. Stein, G. Still: Solving semi-infinite optimization problems with interior point techniques, SIAM J. Control Optim., 42(2003), pp. 769–788). It is shown that Karush-Kuhn-Tucker points of the smoothed problems do not necessarily converge to a Karush-Kuhn-Tucker point of the original problem...

When multiple followers are involved in a bilevel decision problem, the leader’s decision will be affected, not only by the reactions of these followers, but also by the relationships among these followers. One of the popular situations within this framework is where these followers are uncooperatively making decisions while having cross reference of decision information. This situation is call...

A multiobjective security game problem with fuzzy payoffs is studied in this paper. The problem is formulated as a bilevel programming problem with fuzzy coefficients. Using the idea of nearest interval approximation of fuzzy numbers, the problem is transformed into a bilevel programming problem with interval coefficients. The Karush-Kuhn-Tucker conditions is applied then to reduce the problem ...

This paper presents a Taylor series approach for solving linear fractional de-centralized bi-level multi-objective decision-making (LFDBL-MODM) problems with asingle decision maker at the upper level and multiple decision makers at the lower level.In the proposed approach, the membership functions associated with each objective(s) ofthe level(s) of LFDBL-MODM are transformed by using a Taylor s...
