Abstract:

The calculation of RTS amounts to measuring a relationship between inputs and outputs in a production structure. There are many methods to measure RTS in the primal space or the dual space. One of the main approaches is using the multiplier on the convexity constraint. But returns to scale measurements in DEA models are affected by the presence of regulatory constraints. These additional constraints change the role played by the convexity constraint. In this paper discusses methods for determining returns to scale in the presence of undesirable (bad) outputs in the regulated environments.

Measuring returns to scale in DEA models when the firm is regulated

In the standard framework of data envelopment analysis (DEA) models, the returns to scale are fully characterized using the multiplier on the convexity constraint of inefficient decision making units (DMU) using the projection of the input-output vector on the frontier. In this note, we investigate how the returns to scale measurements in DEA models are affected by the presence of regulatory co...

Estimating Returns to Scale in the Presence of Undesirable Factors in Data Envelopment Analysis

This research identifies returns to scale (RTS) of efficient decision making units (DMUs) with desirable (good) and undesirable (bad) inputs and outputs by presenting a new DEA (data envelopment analysis) approach. In this study, we first introduce a new input-output oriented model to determine efficient DMUs in the presence of undesirable factors and then, returns to scale of these DMUs are es...

Inputs/outputs estimation in DEA when some factors are undesirable

In this paper we investigate inputs/outputs estimate in the presence of undesirable factors. We discuss such questions: suppose some outputs (inputs) are undesirable and among a group of decision making units (DMUs) a DMU changes (increases and decreases simultaneously) some of its input (output) levels, how much outputs (inputs) could the unit change such that its efficiency index remains unch...

from linguistics to literature: a linguistic approach to the study of linguistic deviations in the turkish divan of shahriar

chapter i provides an overview of structural linguistics and touches upon the saussurean dichotomies with the final goal of exploring their relevance to the stylistic studies of literature. to provide evidence for the singificance of the study, chapter ii deals with the controversial issue of linguistics and literature, and presents opposing views which, at the same time, have been central to t...
