    A new method for intuitionistic fuzzy multi-objective linear fractional optimization problem and its application in agricultural land allocation problem
    (Elsevier, 2023) Moges, Demmelash Mollalign; Mushi, Allen R.; Wordofa, Berhanu Guta
    This paper presents a new method for solving an intuitionistic fuzzy multi-objective linear fractional optimization (IFMOLFO) problem with crisp and intuitionistic fuzzy constraints. Here, all uncertain parameters are represented as triangular intuitionistic fuzzy numbers. We used an accuracy ranking function and variable transformation in the proposed method to convert an IFMOLFO problem into a crisp multi-objective linear optimization problem. Then, we formulated the first phase of the weighted intuitionistic fuzzy goal programming (WIFGP) model to obtain an intuitionistic fuzzy non-dominant (IFND) solution for the IFMOLFO problem. Several strategies for obtaining an IFND solution to the IFMOLFO problem have been proposed in the literature. However, in addition to constructing the phase-I WIFGP model, this study shows that the IFND solution may not be Pareto-optimal when some of the under-deviation variables are zero. As a result, the second phase of the WIFGP model is applied to address this issue. The benefits of both models are merged to provide a novel method, unlike any other method in the literature, for producing optimal solutions that satisfy both IFND and Pareto-optimal requirements. The suggested algorithm’s efficiency and reliability are demonstrated by addressing a real-life case study of an agricultural production planning problem and followed by solving a numerical example from literature.

    Solving multi-objective multilevel programming problems using two-phase intuitionistic fuzzy goal programming method
    (Elsevier, 2022) Mollalign, Demmelash; Mushi, Allen R.; Guta, Berhanu
    This paper presents a two-phase intuitionistic fuzzy goal programming (two-phase IFGP) algorithm to solve Multi-Objective Multilevel Programming (MO-MLP) problems. The coefficient of each objective and constraint function is assumed to be triangular intuitionistic fuzzy parameters and the crisp MO-MLP problems are obtained using the accuracy function method. To avoid decision lock, the top levels set tolerance limits for decision variables to control the lower levels. The problem is modeled in the intuitionistic fuzzy environment using membership and non-membership functions for each objective function at all levels and decision variables controlled by the top levels. Then, we proposed an IFGP algorithm to achieve the highest degree of each membership and non-membership goal by minimizing unwanted deviational variables and generating compensatory solutions for all decision-makers at all levels. Moreover, in the proposed approach, two-phase IFGP is modeled to yield a compromise solution that satisfies both the MN-Pareto optimal solution and the Pareto optimal solution at each level. Also, verification of the proposed method is discussed with numerical examples.
