Fuzzy Random Based Mean Variance Model for Agricultural Production Planning
Abstract
Observation and measurement data are the basis of an analysis which usually contains uncertainties. The uncertainties in data need to be properly described as they may increase error in the prediction model. The collected data which contains uncertainty should be adequately treated before analysis. In the portfolio selection problem, uncertainty involves are characterized as fuzzy and random. Hence fuzzy random variables are accounted as input values in the portfolio selection analysis. It is important to preprocess the data sufficiently due to the uncertainties issue. However, only a few studies discuss the systematic procedure for data processing whereby the uncertainties exist. Hence, this study introduces a structure for fuzzy random data processing which deals with fuzziness and randomness in data for building a portfolio selection model. The fuzzy number is utilized to treat the fuzziness and the probability distribution used to treat randomness. The proposed model is applied for agricultural planning. Five types of industrial plants are assessed using the proposed method. The result of this study demonstrates that the proposed method of fuzzy random based data Pre-processing can treat the uncertainties. The systematic procedure of fuzzy random data Pre-processing in this study is important to enable data uncertainties treatment and to reduce error in the early stage of problem model building.
