One of the primary assumptions in most optimal pricing methods is that the production cost is a non-increasing function of lot-size. This assumption does not hold for many real-world applications since the cost of unit production may have non-increasing trend up to a certain level and then it starts to increase for many reasons such as an increase in wages, depreciation, etc. Moreover, the prod...

Traditional Genetic Programming (GP) searches the space of functions/programs by using search operators that manipulate their syntactic representation, regardless of their actual semantics/behaviour. Recently, semantically aware search operators have been shown to outperform purely syntactic operators. In this work, using a formal geometric view on search operators and representations, we bring...

The chapter aims to give computational algorithm to solve a multiobjective non-linear programming problem using Neutrosophic geometric programming technique. As the Neutrosophic optimization technique utilizes degrees of truth-membership, falsity-membership and indeterminacy-membership functions, we made a study of correspondence among those membership functions to see its impact on optimizatio...

The difference of two "posynomials" (namely, polynomials with arbitrary real exponents, but positive coefficients and positive independent variables) is termed a signomial. Each signomial program (in which a signomial is to be either minimized or maximized subject to signomial constraints) is transformed into an equivalent posynomial program in which a posynomial is to be minimized subject only...
