Voting and different ranking orders in DEA

Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) technique now widely use for efficiency evaluation of a set of Decision Making Units (DMUs). As regards of the necessity for ranking efficient units different DEA models presented each of which has advantages and rank efficient units from special aspects. Note that all the existing ranking models have disadvantages, as well and there is not a model in which all t...

Ranking Efficient Units in DEA by Using TOPSIS Method

There exist many different ranking methods for ranking efficient Decision Making Units (DMUs) in Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). However, since each of these methods considers a certain theory for ranking, they may give different ranks. In practice, choosing a ranking method, the results of which the Decision Maker (DM) would be able to trust is an important issue. In this paper, we consider s...

Ranking Decision Making Units in Fuzzy-DEA Using Entropy

Abstract Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) can be regarded as a useful management tool to the assessment evaluation of decision making units (DMUs) using multiple inputs to produce multiple outputs. In some cases, to evaluate the efficiency having imprecise inputs and outputs such as fuzzy or interval data the efficiency of DMUs won’t be exact as well. Most researches have been conducted were bas...

Ranking units with fuzzy data in DEA

In this study, both optimistic and pessimistic approaches of data envelopment analysis are applied to propose an equitable ranking method in fuzzy environments. To this end, we suppose that the sum of efficiency scores of all decision making units (DMUs) equals to unity. Using the worst-best and best-worst approaches, the minimum and maximum possible efficiency scores of each DMU are estimated ...
