Abstract

Uncertain variables are used to describe the phenomenon where uncertainty appears in a complex system. For modeling the multi-objective decision-making problems with uncertain parameters, a class of uncertain optimization is suggested for the decision systems in Liu and Chen (2013), http://orsc.edu.cn/online/131020 which is called the uncertain multi-objective programming. In order to solve the proposed uncertain multi-objective programming, an interactive uncertain satisficing approach involving the decision-maker’s flexible demands is proposed in this paper. It makes an improvement in contrast to the noninteractive methods. Finally, a numerical example about the capital budget problem is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed model and the relevant solving approach.
