Optimisation problems as decision problems: The case of fuzzy optimisation problems

The importance that decision-making problems and optimisation problems have today in all aspects of life is beyond all doubt. Despite that importance, both problems tend to be thought of as following different routes, when they have, in fact, a “symbiotic” relation. Here, we consider the different d...

Description
Summary:The importance that decision-making problems and optimisation problems have today in all aspects of life is beyond all doubt. Despite that importance, both problems tend to be thought of as following different routes, when they have, in fact, a “symbiotic” relation. Here, we consider the different decision problems that arise when different kinds of information and framework of behaviour are considered, and we explore the corresponding optimisation problems that can be derived for searching the best possible decision. We explore the case where Fuzzy Mathematical Programming problems are obtained as well as other new ones in the fuzzy context.
