Fuzzy random programming with equilibrium chance constraints

To model fuzzy random decision systems, this paper first defines three kinds of equilibrium chances via fuzzy integrals in the sense of Sugeno. Then a new class of fuzzy random programming problems is presented based on equilibrium chances. Also, some convex theorems about fuzzy random linear programming problems are proved, the results provide us methods to convert primal fuzzy random programming problems to their equivalent stochastic convex programming ones so that both the primal problems and their equivalent problems have the same optimal solutions and the techniques developed for stochastic convex programming can apply. After that, a solution approach, which integrates simulations, neural network and genetic algorithm, is suggested to solve general fuzzy random programming problems. At the end of this paper, three numerical examples are provided. Since the equivalent stochastic programming problems of the three examples are very complex and nonconvex, the techniques of stochastic programming cannot apply. In this paper, we solve them by the proposed hybrid intelligent algorithm. The results show that the algorithm is feasible and effectiveness.
