Taguchi-factorial type-2 fuzzy random optimization model for planning conjunctive water management with compound uncertainties

In this study, a type-2 fuzzy random optimization (TFRO) method is developed for planning conjunctive water management system associated with compound uncertainties. TFRO can effectively address compound uncertainties expressed as type-2 fuzzy sets, probability distributions, and type-2 fuzzy random variables. Solution algorithm based on the degree of probability and the information of plausibility is proposed to transform nonlinear objective …
