Benchmark Forecasting in Data Envelopment Analysis for Decision Making Units
Authors
Abstract:
Although DEA is a powerful method in evaluating DMUs, it does have some limitations. One of the limitations of this method is the result of the evaluation is based on previously data and the results are not proper for forecasting the future changes. So For this purpose, we design feedback loops for forecasting inputs and outputs through system dynamics and simulation. Then we use DEA model to forecast the efficiency.

full textA Recurrent Neural Network to Identify Efficient Decision Making Units in Data Envelopment Analysis
In this paper we present a recurrent neural network model to recognize efficient Decision Making Units(DMUs) in Data Envelopment Analysis(DEA). The proposed neural network model is derived from an unconstrained minimization problem. In theoretical aspect, it is shown that the proposed neural network is stable in the sense of lyapunov and globally convergent. The proposed model has a single-laye...
full textRanking Efficient Decision Making Units in Data Envelopment Analysis based on Changing Reference Set
One of the drawbacks of Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is the problem of lack of discrimination among efficient Decision Making Units (DMUs). A method for removing this difficulty is called changing reference set proposed by Jahanshahloo and et.al (2007). The method has some drawbacks. In this paper a modified method and new method to overcome this problems are suggested. The main advantage of...

Data envelopment analysis which is a nonparametric technique for evaluating relative efficiency of the decision making units with multiple inputs and outputs, has been a very popular method among researchers. While this nonparametric technique is popular, it has some drawbacks such as lack of discrimination in efficient units and weights dispersion .The present study, which is a model based on ...
full textCross Efficiency of Decision Making Units with the Negative Data in Data Envelopment Analysis
The cross-efficiency evaluation is an effective method to evaluate the decision making units (DMUs) with the nonnegative inputs and outputs in data envelopment analysis (DEA) and can be performed with the different formulations. But, in some situations the DMUs encounter with the negative inputs and outputs. This paper generalizes the cross efficiency evaluation for the DMUs with the negative i...
full textThe Comparison of Principal Component Analysis and Data Envelopment Analysis in Ranking of Decision Making Units
In this study, Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and Principal Component Analysis (PCA) were compared when these two methods are used for ranking Decision Making Units (DMU) with multiple inputs and outputs. DEA, a nonstatistical technique, is a methodology using a linear programming model for evaluating and ranking DMU’s performance. PCA, a multivariate statistical method, uses new measures defi...
