Abstract
Reaching an efficient
solution for multi-objective programming problem (MOPP) is not easy and may
encompass some hardships due to existing more than one objective. The aim of
this research was to introduce a new efficient method to tackle fully fuzzy multi-objective
linear fractional programming problem (FFMOLFPP) i.e., a multi-objective linear
fractional programming problem (MOLFPP) with fuzzy coefficients and fuzzy
decision variables. To construct the approach, the of the fuzzy numbers, variable
transformations, the first-order Taylor series, the membership functions, and
the weighted sum method are used. In two
phases, this method alters the fully fuzzy problem into linear programming
problem (LPP) which its solution is at least a weakly efficient for the main
problem. Numerical examples are compared
to an existing method and the outcomes demonstrate that our proposed method is
much more accurate.
Keywords: Fuzzy
numbers; membership functions; Taylor series; the weighted sum method
Abstrak
Mencapai penyelesaian yang cekap untuk masalah pengaturcaraan berbilang objektif (MOPP) bukanlah mudah dan mungkin merangkumi beberapa kesukaran kerana terdapat lebih daripada satu objektif sedia ada. Matlamat penyelidikan ini adalah untuk memperkenalkan kaedah baharu yang cekap untuk menangani masalah pengaturcaraan pecahan linear berbilang objektif kabur sepenuhnya (FFMOLFPP) iaitu masalah pengaturcaraan pecahan linear berbilang objektif (MOLFPP) dengan pekali kabur dan pemboleh ubah keputusan kabur. Untuk membina pendekatan ini, potongan α nombor kabur, transformasi pemboleh ubah, siri Taylor tertib pertama, fungsi keahlian dan kaedah jumlah wajaran digunakan. Dalam dua fasa, kaedah ini mengubah masalah kabur sepenuhnya kepada masalah pengaturcaraan linear (LPP) yang penyelesaiannya sekurang-kurangnya ϵ-cekap untuk masalah utama. Contoh berangka dibandingkan dengan kaedah sedia ada dan hasilnya menunjukkan bahawa kaedah cadangan kami adalah lebih tepat.
Kata kunci: Fungsi keahlian; kaedah hasil tambah wajaran; nombor kabur; siri Taylor
