over the past decades a number of approaches have been applied for forecasting mortality. in 1992, a new method for long-run forecast of the level and age pattern of mortality was published by lee and carter. this method was welcomed by many authors so it was extended through a wider class of generalized, parametric and nonlinear model. this model represents one of the most influential recent d...

In this paper a bi-level optimization approach is introduced to increase the participation of household investors to install battery storage systems in the distribution level. The incentive prices are used here to encourage the private investor. In the upper level the viewpoint of the government is modeled in which, the peak shaving is the goal while minimizing the cost due to the allocated sub...

since its introduction in 1959, translation quality assessment (tqa) has been among the most addressed research topics in translation studies. during recent years, there has been a crucial increase on the study of tqa. various methods have come on scene. although these methods are based on scientific theories, most of them have remained at the level of theory. juliane house’s model is among tho...

In this paper, robust optimization of a bi-objective mathematical model in a dynamic cell formation problem considering labor utilization with uncertain data is carried out. The robust approach is used to reduce the effects of fluctuations of the uncertain parameters with regards to all the possible future scenarios. In this research, cost parameters of the cell formation and demand fluctuation...
