Abstract A new uncertain optimization method is developed based on intervals and an approximation management model. A general uncertain optimization problem is considered in which the objective function and constraints are both nonlinear and uncertain, and intervals are used to model the uncertainty existing in the system. Based on a possibility degree of interval,anonlinear interval number programming (NINP) method is proposed. A deterministic objective function is constructed to maximize the possibility degree of the uncertain objective function, and the uncertain constraints are changed into deterministic ones by introducing some possibility degree levels. If the optimal possibility degree More >
