Within a supply chain, purchasing plays a key role in achieving corporate competition. Hence, selecting the right suppliers is a vital component of these strategies. In practice, supplier selection is a multiobjective programming problem with vagueness and imprecision of the input data. In spite of the importance of the problem, the literature on this subject is relatively scarce. In this paper...

The problem of identifying the parameters of the constituent local linear models of Takagi–Sugeno fuzzy models is considered. In order to address the tradeoff between global model accuracy and interpretability of the local models as linearizations of a nonlinear system, two multiobjective identification algorithms are studied. Particular attention is paid to the analysis of conflicts between ob...

This paper presents a multiobjective genetic algorithm which obtains fuzzy rules for subgroup discovery in disjunctive normal form. This kind of fuzzy rules lets us represent knowledge about patterns of interest in an explanatory and understandable form which can be used by the expert. The evolutionary algorithm follows a multiobjective approach in order to optimize in a suitable way the differ...

The game-theoretic formulation of the multiobjective multicommodity flow problem is considered. The dynamic version of this problem is studied and an algorithm for its solving, based on the concept of multiobjective games, is proposed. Mathematics Subject Classification 2000: 90B10, 90C35, 90C27, 90C47.

Fuzzy systems are capable to model the inherent uncertainties in real world problems and implement human decision making. In this paper two issues related to fuzzy systems development are addressed and solutions are proposed and implemented. First issue is related to the high dimensional data sets. Such kinds of data sets lead to explode the search space of generated rules and results into dete...

the intuitionistic fuzzy set has been applied to game theory very rarely since it was introduced by atanassov in 1983. the aim of this paper is to develop an effective methodology for solving matrix games with payoffs of atanassov’s triangular intuitionistic fuzzy numbers (tifns). in this methodology, the concepts and ranking order relations of atanassov’s tifns are defined. a pair of bi-object...

A certain constrained vector-valued dynamic game is formulated and shown to be equivalent to a pair of multiobjective symmetric dual variational problems which have more general formulations than those studied earlier. A number of duality theorems, are established under suitable generalized convexity assumptions on the functionals. Selfduality reflecting symmetric dynamic games is investigated....

Coalitional game deals with situations that involve cooperations among players, and there are different solution concepts such as the core,the Shapley value and the kernel. In many situations, there is no way to predict the payoff functions except for the expert experiencesand subjective intuitions, which leads to the coalitional game with fuzzy payoffs. Within the framework of credibility theo...

This paper, presents an adapted serious game for rating social ability in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The required measurements are obtained by challenges of the proposed serious game. The proposed serious game uses reinforcement learning concepts for being adaptive. It is based on fuzzy logic to evaluate the social ability level of the children with ASD. The game adapts itsel...

This paper addresses the problem of the optimal design of batch plants with imprecise demands in product amounts. The design of such plants necessary involves how equipment may be utilized, which means that plant scheduling and production must constitute a basic part of the design problem. Rather than resorting to a traditional probabilistic approach for modeling the imprecision on product dema...
