چکیده

The relationship is studied between possibility and necessity measures defined on arbitrary spaces, the theory of imprecise probabilities, and elementary random set theory. It is shown how special random sets can be used to generate normal possibility and necessity measures, as well as their natural extensions. This leads to interesting alternative formulas for the calculation of these natural extensions. Keywords—Upper probability, upper prevision, coherence, natural extension, possibility measure, random sets.

EFFICIENCY IN FUZZY PRODUCTION POSSIBILITY SET

The existing Data Envelopment Analysis models for evaluating the relative eciency of a set of decision making units by using various inputs to produce various outputs are limited to crisp data in crisp production possibility set. In this paper, rst of all the production possibility set is extended to the fuzzy production possibility set by extension principle in constant return to scale, and th...

Possibility Measures, Random Sets and Natural Extension

We study the relationship between possibility and necessity measures defined on arbitrary spaces, the theory of imprecise probabilities, and elementary random set theory. We show how special random sets can be used to generate normal possibility and necessity measures, as well as their natural extensions. This leads to interesting alternative formulas for the calculation of these natural extens...

Technically Efficient Targets for the Groups by Using the Centralized Scenario and Enhanced Russell Measure

Cooper et al. [Efficiency aggregation with enhanced Russell measures in data envelopment analysis, Socio-Economic Planning Sciences, 41 (2007) 1–21] presented a method for measuring aggregate efficiency, using the enhanced Russell measure. In that paper, they posed questions and opened the way for new opportunities for studying and extending the proposed method and some other related fields. On...

Probability-possibility DEA model with Fuzzy random data in presence of skew-Normal distribution

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a mathematical method to evaluate the performance of decision-making units (DMU). In the performance evaluation of an organization based on the classical theory of DEA, input and output data are assumed to be deterministic, while in the real world, the observed values of the inputs and outputs data are mainly fuzzy and random. A normal distribution is a contin...
