abstract

on account of the existence of uncertainty, dea occasionally faces the situation of imprecise data, especially when a set of dmus include missing data, ordinal data, interval data, stochastic data, or fuzzy data. therefore, how to evaluate the efficiency of a set of dmus in interval environments is a problem worth studying. in this paper, we discussed the new method for evaluation and ranking interval data with stochastic bounds. the approach is exemplified by numerical examples.

Efficiency Evaluation and Ranking DMUs in the Presence of Interval Data with Stochastic Bounds

On account of the existence of uncertainty, DEA occasionally faces the situation of imprecise data, especially when a set of DMUs include missing data, ordinal data, interval data, stochastic data, or fuzzy data. Therefore, how to evaluate the efficiency of a set of DMUs in interval environments is a problem worth studying. In this paper, we discussed the new method for evaluation and ranking i...

Computing the efficiency interval of decision making units (DMUs) having interval inputs and outputs with the presence of negative data

The basic assumption in data envelopment analysis patterns (DEA) (such as the CCR andBCC models) is that the value of data related to the inputs and outputs is a precise andpositive number, but most of the time in real conditions of business, determining precisenumerical value is not possible in for some inputs or outputs. For this purpose, differentmodels have been proposed in DEA for imprecis...

Ranking DMUs by ideal points in the presence of fuzzy and ordinal data

Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is a very eective method to evaluate the relative eciency of decision-making units (DMUs). DEA models divided all DMUs in two categories: ecient and inecientDMUs, and don't able to discriminant between ecient DMUs. On the other hand, the observedvalues of the input and output data in real-life problems are sometimes imprecise or vague, suchas interval data, ordinal da...

ranking dmus with interval data using dea and ca approaches

data envelope analysis (dea) is an approach to estimate the relative efficiency of decision making units (dmus). several studies were conducted in order to prioritize efficient units and some useful models such as cross-efficiency matrix (cem) were presented.  besides, a number of dea models with interval data have been developed and ranking dmus with such data was solved. however, presenting a...

Efficiency and Effectiveness with interval indices in stochastic environments

Non-parametric DEA is a technique on the basic of mathematical programming to determine the efficiency of homological decision making units. DEA models changes in demand cause changes in variations in output levels and also will cause changes in a firm’s inefficiency. Often a firm can adjust input influencing on the output level. Models designed with technique on DEA that considers changes in d...
