IFSs, proposed in 1983, are a relatively new tool for the modeling and simulation and, because of their construction, present us with new challenges as far the similarity measures are concerned. Specifically, we claim that the distances alone are not a proper measure of similarity for the IFSs. We stress the role of a lack of knowledge concerning elements (options, decisions, etc.) and point out the role of the opposing (complementing) elements. We also pay attention to the fact that it is not justified to talk about similarity when one has not enough knowledge about the compared objects/elements. Some novel measures of similarity are presented.","PeriodicalId":55209,"journal":{"name":"Control and Cybernetics","volume":"51 1","pages":"249 - 266"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48446537","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The topological sensitivity of a given cost function J(u∈) with respect to a small hole B∈ around a given point x0 ∈ B∈ ⊂ Ω depends on various parameters, like the frequency k chosen or certain material parameters or even the shape parameters of the hole B∈. These parameters are either deliberately chosen in a certain range, as, e.g., the frequencies, or are known only up to some bounds. The problem arises as to whether one can obtain a uniform design using the topological gradient.

The paper by Lasiecka and Triggiani (2022) recently contributed a comprehensive study of the Optimal Control Problem for the MGT-third order dynamics with boundary control, over an infinite time-horizon. A critical missing point in such a study is the issue of uniqueness (within a specific class) of the corresponding highly non-standard Algebraic Riccati Equation.

Chaudhari, Aniket C.

Moreover, a decreased price and a higher stock level lead to a higher rate of demand. Consequently, in this article, we present a new approach, aiming at maximization of the return on investment by maximizing the profit/cost ratio. If an inventory manager has the potential to invest in a variety of projects, but disposes of only limited resources, it is logical to strategically plan towards a better return on investment. As a result, the manager’s objective will be to develop an inventory policy with a possibly high return on investment. Therefore, a new strategy is considered in this article to optimize the profitability ratio in terms of replenishment time and selling price, which is determined as the proportion between the profit and the overall cost of the inventory scheme. This research demonstrates that optimizing the profitability ratio is equivalent to decreasing the average inventory cost of a product per unit. Also, the optimality is graphically checked and one numerical illustration is discussed to explain the result of the proposed model. Finally, sensitivity analysis of key parameters is performed to show the applicability of the proposed model. The profit/cost ratio is more sensitive to price elasticity markup or purchasing cost compared to the other parameters used. Also, for decision-makers, several helpful management insights are derived.","PeriodicalId":55209,"journal":{"name":"Control and Cybernetics","volume":"51 1","pages":"91 - 108"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43426211","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The huge number of applications of minimax fractional programming problems inspired us to work on this topic. This paper is concerned with a nondifferentiable minimax fractional programming problem. We study a parametric dual model, corresponding to the primal problem, and derive the sufficient optimality condition for an optimal solution to the considered problem. Further, we obtain the various duality results under (p, r)-ρ-(η, θ)-invexity assumptions. Also, we identify a function lying exclusively in the class of (−1, 1)-ρ-(η, θ)-invex functions but not in the class of (1, −1)-invex functions and convex function already existing in the literature.

The game is characterized by its matrix, in which each element is a subject for independent perturbations., i.e. a set of perturbing matrices is formed by a set of additive matrices, with two arbitrary Hölder norms specified independently in the outcome and criterion spaces. We undertake post-optimal analysis for the so-called stability kernel. The analytical expression for supreme levels of such perturbations is found.
