Choosing weights for a complete ranking of DMUs in DEA and cross-evaluation
author
Abstract:
Conventional data envelopment analysis (DEA) assists decision makers in distinguishing between efficient and inefficient decision making units (DMUs) in a homogeneous group. However, DEA does not provide more information about the efficient DMUs. One of the interesting research subjects is to discriminate between efficient DMUs. The aim of this paper is ranking all efficient (extreme and non-extreme) DMUs based on defining the new index which is obtained from basic definitions of models. The proposed method has been able to remove the existing deficiencies in some ranking methods and therefore makes a new contribution to DEA ranking.

Ranking Efficient DMUs Using the Variation Coefficient of Weights in DEA
One of the difficulties of Data Envelopment Analysis(DEA) is the problem of de_ciency discrimination among efficient Decision Making Units (DMUs) and hence, yielding large number of DMUs as efficient ones. The main purpose of this paper is to overcome this inability. One of the methods for ranking efficient DMUs is minimizing the Coefficient of Variation (CV) for inputs-outputs weights. In this...

full textA two-stage model for ranking DMUs using DEA/AHP
In this paper, we present a two-stage model for ranking of decision making units (DMUs) using interval analytic hierarchy process (AHP). Since the efficiency score of unity is assigned to the efficient units, we evaluate the efficiency of each DMU by basic DEA models and calculate the weights of the criteria using proposed model. In the first stage, the proposed model evaluates decision making...

Two stages DEA models are used in many fields of management and industry. One of the concepts that has attracted the attention of researchers in the theory of production is the concept of ranking the units with a two-stage network. A unit ranking can provide useful information to decision makers (DMUs) about optimal decision making activities. This concept defines the superiority of a unit in t...
full textRanking DMUs by Comparing DEA Cross-Efficiency Intervals Using Entropy Measures
Cross-efficiency evaluation, an extension of data envelopment analysis (DEA), can eliminate unrealistic weighing schemes and provide a ranking for decision making units (DMUs). In the literature, the determination of input and output weights uniquely receives more attentions. However, the problem of choosing the aggressive (minimal) or benevolent (maximal) formulation for decision-making might ...

As regards of the necessity of ranking efficient units different Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) models are introduced. Each of the existing models has advantages and deals with ranking efficient units from special aspects. But, there exist no model has all these benefits in a unified manner. The aim of this paper is to present a new ranking method which can incorporate, to a great extent, adva...
