Abstract

This research introduces a nonlinear multi-objective optimization model that is designed to simultaneously optimize profit and customer satisfaction in production systems. The investigated problem includes optimization in complex and uncertain conditions of production, which is faced with resource and time limitations. The proposed model provides optimal solutions for managers by using non-linear objective functions and detailed analysis of operating conditions. This fuzzy logic is combined with machine learning algorithms such as neural networks and reinforcement learning to create an intelligent and flexible model that effectively adapts to sudden changes in dynamic environments. This model uses the combination of non-dominant fourth sorting genetic algorithms (NSGA-IV) and variable selection network (VSN) in a hybrid framework and provides an advanced and multi-faceted approach to solving complex multi-objective optimization problems. Pareto-optimal results obtained from this model indicate its efficient and optimal performance. The proposed model can be used as a practical and strategic source for managers and decision makers in optimizing production and improving customer satisfaction in uncertain and dynamic conditions.
