Considering the vehicle routing problem with fuzzy demand and time windows, a optimization method is proposed considering both soft windows uncertain customer demand. First, chance-constrained programming model established based on credibility theory, minimizing total logistics cost. At same time, random simulation algorithm designed to calculate penalty cost of delivery failures caused by that...

In this paper, several portfolio selection problems with normal mixture distributions including fuzziness are proposed. Until now, many researchers have proposed portfolio models based on the stochastic approach, and there are some models considering both random and ambiguous conditions, particularly using fuzzy random or random fuzzy variables. However, the model including normal mixture distr...

We have considered a chance-constrained programming problem u...

It is well known that Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is a relative efficiency measurement tool, which uses optimization techniques to automatically calculate the weights assigned to the crisp deterministic multiple inputs and outputs of a set of the Decision Making Units (DMUs) being assessed. However, crisp deterministic data requirement delimits an application to the real world problems wher...
