In this note, we show that the linear programming for computing the quasi-additive bound of the formula size of a Boolean function presented by Ueno [MFCS’10] is equivalent to the dual problem of the linear programming relaxation of an integer programming for computing the protocol partition number. Together with the result of Ueno [MFCS’10], our results imply that there exists no gap between o...

in this paper, a new method is proposed to find the fuzzy optimal solution of fully fuzzy linear bilevel programming (fflblp) problems by representing all the parameters as triangular fuzzy numbers. in the proposed method, the given fflblp problem is decomposed into three crisp linear programming (clp) problems with bounded variables constraints, the three clp problems are solved separately and...

the fuzzy linear regression model with fuzzy input-output data andcrisp coefficients is studied in this paper. a linear programmingmodel based on goal programming is proposed to calculate theregression coefficients. in contrast with most of the previous works, theproposed model takes into account the centers of fuzzy data as animportant feature as well as their spreads in the procedure ofconstr...

The stochastic transportation problem involves in many areas such as production scheduling, facility location, resource allocation, logistics management. Constructing an operable solving method has important theoretical and practical value. In this paper, we first analyze the characteristic and deficiencies of the existing stochastic programming methods, such as higher computation complexity. W...

An algorithm for solving large-scale nonlinear' programs with linear constraints is presented. The method combines efficient sparse-matrix techniques as in the revised simplex method with stable quasi-Newton methods for handling the nonlinearities. A general-purpose production code (MINOS) is described, along with computational experience on a wide variety of problems.

A stochastic optimal control strategy for partially observable nonlinear systems is proposed. The optimal control force consists of two parts. The first part is determined by the conditions under which the stochastic optimal control problem of a partially observable nonlinear system is converted into that of a completely observable linear system. The second part is determined by solving the dyn...
