Abstract

The k-tree problem is to find a tree with k vertices in a given graph such that the total cost is minimum and is known to be NP-hard. In this paper, the k-tree problem with fuzzy weights is firstly formulated as the chance-constrained programming by using the possibility measure and the credibility measure. Then an oriented tree and knowledge-based hybrid genetic algorithm is designed for solving the proposed fuzzy programming models.
