Abstract

The neutrosophic primal simplex algorithm starts from a neutrosophic basic feasible solution. If there is no such a solution, we cannot apply the neutrosophic primal simplex method for solving the neutrosophic linear programming problem. In this chapter, the authors propose a neutrosophic two-phase method involving neutrosophic artificial variables to obtain an initial neutrosophic basic feasible solution to a slightly modified set of constraints. Then the neutrosophic primal simplex method is used to eliminate the neutrosophic artificial variables and to solve the original problem.

2. Preliminaries

In this section, we introduce some basic definitions of the neutrosophic set theory.

Definition 1 [Abdel-Basset et al. 2018] A single-valued neutrosophic set N which is a subset of X is defined as follows:

978-1-7998-2555-5.ch016.m01
where X is a universe of discourse,TN(x): X→[0,1], IN(x): X→[0,1] and FN(x): X→[0,1] with
978-1-7998-2555-5.ch016.m02
for all x∈X, TN(x), IN(x) and FN(x) represent truth membership, indeterminacy membership and falsity membership degrees of x to N.
