Computation of Output Losses due to Congestion in Data Envelopment Analysis
Authors
Abstract:
Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is an approach for evaluating performances of Decision Making Units (DMUs). The performances of DMUs are affected by the amount of sources that DMUs used. Usually increases in inputs cause increases in outputs. However, there are situations where increases in one or more inputs generate a reduction in one or more outputs. In such situations there is congestion in inputs or production process. In this study, we review two approaches that are available in the DEA literature for evaluating congestion. Afterwards, we focus on output losses due to congestion, and a model is introduced to compute output reduction. Then, the mentioned models are applied on an empirical example and the results are presented and interpreted.

full textInput congestion, technical ineciency and output reduction in fuzzy data envelopment analysis
During the last years, the concept of input congestion and technical ineff-ciency in data envelopment analysis (DEA), have been investigated by manyresearchers. The motivation of this paper is to present models which obtain thedecreased output value due to input congestion and technical ineciency. More-over, we extend the models to estimate input congestion, technical ineciencyand output reduct...
