Abstract:

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a method for recognizing the efficient frontier of decision making units (DMUs).This paper presents a Context-dependent DEA which uses the interval inputs and outputs. Context-dependent approach with interval inputs and outputs can consider a set of DMUs against the special context. Each context shows an efficient frontier including DMUs in particular levels. The Context-dependent DEA with interval inputs and outputs can measure (i) the attractiveness when DMUs showing weaker performance are selected as an appraisal context, and (ii) the interval progress when DMUs showing better performance are selected as the appraisal context. Keywords: Interval Inputs and Outputs, Context-Dependent Data Envelopment Analysis, Attractiveness, Progress, Value Judgment.

Context-Dependent Data Envelopment Analysis with Interval Data

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a non-parametric method for evaluating the relative efficiency of decision making units (DMUs) on the basis of multiple inputs and outputs. The context-dependent DEA is introduced to measure the relative attractiveness of a particular DMU when compared to others. In real-world situation, because of incomplete or non-obtainable information, the data (Input and ...

Resource Allocation through Context-dependent data envelopment analysis

System designs, optimizing resource allocation to organization units, is still being considered as a complicated problem especially when there are multiple inputs and outputs related to a unit. The algorithm presented here will divide the frontiers obtained with DEA. In this way, we investigate a new approach for resource allocation.

Classifying inputs and outputs in interval data envelopment analysis

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is an approach to measure the relative efficiency of decision-making units with multiple inputs and multiple outputs using mathematical programming. In the traditional DEA, it is assumed that we know the input or output role of each performance measure. But in some situations, the type of performance measure is unknown. These performance measures are called flexi...

Capacity utilization in data envelopment analysis with integer data

In the process of production, some of the inputs are fixed and cannot easily be changed, such as work hours of workers and hours of administrative or work, these types of inputs are fixed and others are variables. In this paper, by considering some inputs or outputs which are limited, their amounts must be integrated; this concept for integer data is extended. We show the importance of subject ...
