Abstract:

The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the revenue efficiency in the fuzzy network data envelopment analysis‎. ‎Precision measurements in real-world data are not practically possible‎, ‎so assuming that data is crisp in solving problems is not a valid assumption‎. ‎One way to deal with imprecise data is fuzzy data‎. ‎In this paper‎, ‎linear ranking functions are used to transform the full fuzzy efficiency model into a precise linear programming problem and‎, ‎assuming triangular fuzzy numbers‎, ‎the fuzzy revenue efficiency of decision makers is measured‎. ‎In the end‎, ‎a numerical example shows the proposed method.

Shapley value-based multi-objective data envelopment analysis application for assessing academic efficiency of university departments

This paper adopts a modified approach of data envelopment analysis (DEA) to measure the academic efficiency of university departments. In real-world case studies, conventional DEA models often identify too many decision-making units (DMUs) as efficient. This occurs when the number of DMUs under evaluation is not large enough compared to the total number of decision variables. To overcome this l...

A Bootstrap Interval Robust Data Envelopment Analysis for Estimate Efficiency and Ranking Hospitals

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is one of non-parametric methods for evaluating efficiency of each unit. Limited resources in healthcare economy is the main reason in measuring efficiency of hospitals. In this study, a bootstrap interval data envelopment analysis (BIRDEA) is proposed for measuring the efficiency of hospitals affiliated with the Hamedan University of Medical Sciences. The propos...

FUZZY RISK ANALYSIS BASED ON A NEW METHOD FOR RANKING GENERALIZED FUZZY NUMBERS

Fuzzy risk analysis, as a powerful tool to address uncertain information, can provide an appropriate method for risk analysis. However, the previous fuzzy risk analysis methods still have some weaknesses. To overcome the weaknesses of existing fuzzy risk analysis methods, a novel method for ranking generalized fuzzy numbers is proposed for addressing fuzzy risk analysis problems. In the propose...

A New Group Data Envelopment Analysis Method for Ranking Design Requirements in Quality Function ‎Deployment

‎Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is an objective method for priority determination of decision making units (DMUs) with the same multiple inputs and outputs. DEA is an efficiency estimation technique, but it can be used for solving many problems of management such as rankig of DMUs. Many researchers have found similarity between DEA and MCDM techniques. One of the earliest techniques in MCDM is...

A new approach based on data envelopment analysis with double frontiers for ranking the discovered rules from data mining

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a relatively new data oriented approach to evaluate performance of a set of peer entities called decision-making units (DMUs) that convert multiple inputs into multiple outputs. Within a relative limited period, DEA has been converted into a strong quantitative and analytical tool to measure and evaluate performance. In an article written by Toloo et al. (2009...

Fuzzy Data Envelopment Analysis for Classification of Streaming Data

The classification of fuzzy uncertain data is considered one of the most challenging issues in data analysis. In spite of the significance of fuzzy data in mathematical programming, the development of the analytical methods of fuzzy data is slow. Therefore, the current study proposes a new fuzzy data classification method based on fuzzy data envelopment analysis (DEA) which can handle strea...
