Fuzzy data envelopment analysis (DEA): a possibility approach
Fuzzy Sets and Systems, 139(2), 379–394.
author keywords: data envelopment analysis; fuzzy mathematical programming; possibility theory; efficiency analysis
TL;DR:
The approach transforms fuzzy DEA models into possibility DEA models by using possibility measures of fuzzy events (fuzzy constraints) and it is shown that for the special case, in which fuzzy membership functions of fuzzy data are of trapezoidal types, possibility DEA model become linear programming models.

Quadratically constrained minimum cross-entropy analysis
Mathematical Programming, 44(1-3), 85–96.
TL;DR:
This paper separate the probability constraint from general quadratic constraints and use two simple geometric inequalities to derive its dual problem and directly prove the “strong duality theorem” and derive a “dual-to-primal” conversion formula.
