This paper presents the results of an empirical study concerning conventional and socially responsible mutual funds.We apply a sophisticated operations research algorithm embedded in inverse portfolio optimization on financial market data, ESG-scores and CRSP fund data. Due to our results we...

This paper presents a simplex-based solution procedure for the multiple objective linear fractional programming problem. By (1) departing slightly from the traditional notion of efficiency and (2) augmenting the feasible region as in goal programming, the solution procedure solves for all weakly...

In this paper, we propose a new interactive procedure for solving multiple objective programming problems. Based upon feed-forward artificial neural networks (FFANNs), the method is called the Interactive FFANN Procedure. In the procedure, the decision maker articulates preference information...

We present a framework for inverse optimization in a Markowitz portfolio model that is extended to include a third criterion. The third criterion causes the traditional nondominated frontier to become a surface. Until recently, it had not been possible to compute such a surface. But by using a...

The purpose of this research is to develop a computer applicable methodology for analyzing multiple objective linear programming problems when interval, rather than fixed, weights are assigned to each of the objectives. Rather than obtaining a single efficient extreme point as one would normally...

In this paper we combine the Tchebycheff method of Steuer and Choo with Wierzbicki's Aspiration Criterion Vector method in order to form an improved procedure for interactive multiple objective programming. The Combined procedure is sensible because the Tchebycheff and Aspiration Criterion...

This paper is an update of a paper that five of us published in 1992. The areas of multiple criteria decision making (MCDM) and multiattribute utility theory (MAUT) continue to be active areas of management science research and application. This paper extends the history of these areas and...
