This paper is concerned with a class of fully fuzzy bilevel linear programming problems where all the coefficients and decision variables of both objective functions and the constraints are fuzzy numbers. A new approach based on deviation degree measures and a ranking function method is proposed to solve these problems. We first introduce concepts of the feasible region and the fuzzy optimal solution of a fully fuzzy bilevel linear programming problem. In order to obtain a fuzzy optimal solution of the problem, we apply deviation degree measures to deal with the fuzzy constraints and use a ranking function method of fuzzy numbers to rank the upper and lower level fuzzy objective functions. Then the fully fuzzy bilevel linear programming problem can be transformed into a deterministic bilevel programming problem. Considering the overall balance between improving objective function values and decreasing allowed deviation degrees, the computational procedure for finding a fuzzy optimal solution is proposed. Finally, a numerical example is provided to illustrate the proposed approach. The results indicate that the proposed approach gives a better optimal solution in comparison with the existing method.

We address a fully fuzzy bilevel linear programming problem in which all the coefficients and variables of both objective functions and constraints are expressed as fuzzy numbers. This paper is to develop a new method to deal with the fully fuzzy bilevel linear programming problem by applying interval programming method. To this end, we first discretize membership grade of fuzzy coefficients and fuzzy decision variables of the problem into a finite number ofα-level sets. By usingα-level sets of fuzzy numbers, the fully fuzzy bilevel linear programming problem is transformed into an interval bilevel linear programming problem for eachα-level set. The main idea to solve the obtained interval bilevel linear programming problem is to convert the problem into two deterministic subproblems which correspond to the lower and upper bounds of the upper level objective function. Based on theKth-best algorithm, the two subproblems can be solved sequentially. Based on a series ofα-level sets, we introduce a linear piecewise trapezoidal fuzzy number to approximate the optimal value of the upper level objective function of the fully fuzzy bilevel linear programming problem. Finally, a numerical example is provided to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed approach.
