tailieunhanh - Random matrix generators for optimizing a fuzzy biofuel supply chain system

Complex industrial systems often contain various uncertainties. Hence sophisticated fuzzy optimization (metaheuristics) techniques have become commonplace; and are currently indispensable for e ective design, maintenance and operations of such systems. Unfortunately, such state-of-the-art techniques suffer several drawbacks when applied to largescale problems. In line of improving the performance of metaheuristics in those, this work proposes the fuzzy random matrix theory (RMT) as an add-on to the cuckoo search (CS) technique for solving the fuzzy large-scale multiobjective (MO) optimization problem; biofuel supply chain. The fuzzy biofuel supply chain problem accounts for uncertainties resulting from uctuations in the annual electricity generation output of the biomass power plant [kWh/year]. The details of these investigations are presented and analyzed. | VOLUME 4 ISSUE 1 2020 March Random Matrix Generators for Optimizing a Fuzzy Biofuel Supply Chain System 1 2 1 Timothy GANESAN Pandian VASANT Pratik SANGHVI 3 4 Joshua THOMAS Igor LITVINCHEV Royal Bank of Canada Canada 1 Universiti Teknologi Petronas Malaysia 2 3 UOW Malaysia KDU Penang University College Malaysia 4 Nuevo Leon State University Mexico Corresponding Author Pandian VASANT Email pvasant@ Received 12-Nov-2019 accepted 3-Feb-2020 published 31-Mar-2020 DOI http 1.
