A METHOD FOR DISCRIMINATING EFFICIENT CANDIDATES WITH RANKED VOTING DATA BY COMMON WEIGHTs

چکیده
Ranked voting data arise when voters select and rank more than one candidate with an order of preference. Cook et al.[1] introduced data envelopment analysis (DEA) to analyze ranked voting data. Obata et al.[2] proposed a new method that did not use information obtained from inefficient candidates to discriminate efficient candidates. Liu et al.[3] ranked efficient DMUs on the DEA frontier with common weights. They proposed a methodology to determine one common set of weights for the performance indices of all DMUs. Then, these DMUs were ranked according to the efficiency score weighted by the common set of weights. In this paper, we use one common set of weights for ranked voting data.

متن کاملA two phases approach for discriminating efficient candidate by using DEA inspired procedure
There are several methods to ranking DMUs in Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and candidates in voting system. This paper proposes a new two phases method based on DEA’s concepts. The first phase presents an aspiration rank for each candidate and second phase propose final ranking.
متن کاملRanking of units by anti-ideal DMU with common weights
Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a powerful technique for performance evaluation of decision making units (DMUs). One of the main objectives that is followed in performance evaluation is discriminating among efficient DMUs to provide a complete ranking of DMUs. DEA successfully divides them into two categories: efficient DMUs and inefficient DMUs. The DMUs in the efficient category have ident...
متن کاملRANKING DMUS ON THE BENCHMARK LINE WITH EQUAL SHADOW PRICES
Data envelopment analysis (DEA) with considering the best condition for each decision making unit (DMU) assesses the relative efficiency for it and divides a homogenous group of DMUs in to two categories: efficient and inefficient, but traditional DEA models can not rank efficient DMUs. Although some models were introduced for ranking efficient DMUs, Franklin Lio & Hsuan peng (2008), proposed a...
متن کاملA Goal Programming Method for Finding Common Weights in DEA with an Improved Discriminating Power for Efficiency
A characteristic of data envelopment analysis (DEA) is to allow individual decision making units (DMUs) to select the most advantageous weights in calculating their efficiency scores. This flexibility, on the other hand, deters the comparison among DMUs on a common base. For dealing with this difficulty and assessing all the DMUs on the same scale, this paper proposes using a multiple objective...
