Abstract

A risk-aware decision-making problem can be formulated as a chance-constrained linear program in probability measure space. Chance-constrained linear program in probability measure space is intractable, and no numerical method exists to solve this problem. This paper presents numerical methods to solve chance-constrained linear programs in probability measure space for the first time. We propose two solvable optimization problems as approximate problems of the original problem. We prove the uniform convergence of each approximate problem. Moreover, numerical experiments have been implemented to validate the proposed methods.
