Multi-objective Stackelberg Game Between a Regulating Authority and a Mining Company: A Case Study in Environmental Economics

open access: yes, 2013
Bilevel programming problems are often found in practice. In this paper, we handle one such bilevel application problem from the domain of environmental economics. The problem is a Stakelberg game with multiple objectives at the upper level, and a single

Evaluating Resilience of Electricity Distribution Networks via A Modification of Generalized Benders Decomposition Method

open access: yes, 2020
This paper presents a computational approach to evaluate the resilience of electricity Distribution Networks (DNs) to cyber-physical failures. In our model, we consider an attacker who targets multiple DN components to maximize the loss of the DN ...

Opportunities for Price Manipulation by Aggregators in Electricity Markets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Aggregators are playing an increasingly crucial role in the integration of renewable generation in power systems. However, the intermittent nature of renewable generation makes market interactions of aggregators difficult to monitor and regulate, raising

Heuristic artificial bee colony algorithm for solving the Homicidal Chauffeur differential game [PDF]

open access: yesAUT Journal of Mathematics and Computing, 2020
In this paper, we consider the Homicidal Chauffeur (HC) problem as an interesting and practical differential game. At first, we introduce a bilevel optimal control problem (BOCP) and prove that a saddle point solution for this game exists if and only if ...

A parametric integer programming algorithm for bilevel mixed integer programs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We consider discrete bilevel optimization problems where the follower solves an integer program with a fixed number of variables. Using recent results in parametric integer programming, we present polynomial time algorithms for pure and mixed integer ...

Finding Optimal Strategies in a Multi-Period Multi-Leader-Follower Stackelberg Game Using an Evolutionary Algorithm [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Stackelberg games are a classic example of bilevel optimization problems, which are often encountered in game theory and economics. These are complex problems with a hierarchical structure, where one optimization task is nested within the other.

Multi-Sine Cosine Algorithm for Solving Nonlinear Bilevel Programming Problems

open access: yesInternational Journal of Computational Intelligence Systems, 2020
In this paper, multi-sine cosine algorithm (MSCA) is presented to solve nonlinear bilevel programming problems (NBLPPs); where three different populations (completely separate from one another) of sine cosine algorithm (SCA) are used.

Switching disease‐modifying therapies in patients with spinal muscular atrophy: A systematic review on effectiveness outcomes

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
With multiple disease‐modifying therapies now available, treatment switching has become an important clinical consideration in the management of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). While some switches are prompted by suboptimal clinical response, more commonly they are driven by treatment burden, convenience, or adverse events.
