A Novel General Data Envelopment Analysis Based Approach for MCDM Issues of Hydrogen Energy under a Fuzzy Environment

Selecting Energy Efficient Poultry Egg Producers: A Fuzzy Data Envelopment Analysis Approach

This study examined the energy use pattern of poultry for egg production farms of Iran and ranked the selected farmers using fuzzy data envelopment analysis (FDEA) from the viewpoint of energy efficiency. Since data used in our study were not measured precisely, fuzzy forms of them could help us to reach the ideal situations. Hence, the conventional data envelopment analysis (DEA) was remod...

A fuzzy expected value approach under generalized data envelopment analysis

A Common Weight Data Envelopment Analysis Approach for Material Selection

Material selection is one of the major problems in manufacturing environments since the improper selected material may lead to fail in the production processes and result in customer dissatisfaction and cost inefficiency. Every material has different properties which should be considered as major criteria during the material selection procedure. Selection criteria could be quantitative or quali...

Fuzzy data envelopment analysis: A discrete approach

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) as introduced by Charnes et al [3] is a linear programming technique that has widely been used to evaluate the relative efficiency of a set of homogenous decision making units (DMUs). In many real applications, the input-output variables cannot be precisely measured. This is particularly important in assessing efficiency of DMUs using DEA, since the efficiency sc...

A new approach based on alpha cuts for solving data envelopment analysis model with fuzzy stochastic inputs and outputs

Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is a widely used technique for measuring the relative efficiencies of homogenous Decision Making Units (DMUs) with multiple inputs and multiple outputs. These factors may be evaluated in fuzzy or stochastic environment. Hence, the classic structures of DEA model may be changed where in two fold fuzzy stochastic environment. For instances, linearity, feasibility a...
