Minimizing the Weights dispersion in Cross-Efficiency Measurement in data envelopment analysis

minimizing the weights dispersion in cross-efficiency measurement in data envelopment analysis

because of the piecewise linear nature of the data envelopment analysis (dea) frontier, the optimal multipliers of the dea models may not be unique. choosing weights from alternative optimal solutions of dual multiplier models is one of the most frequently studied subjects in the context of dea. in this paper, the authors have been inspired by the idea of cooper et al. (2011) to propose a linea...

COMMON WEIGHTS DETERMINATION IN DATA ENVELOPMENT ANALYSIS

In models of data envelopment analysis (DEA), an optimal set of weights is generally assumed to represent the assessed decision making unit (DMU) in the best light in comparison to all the other DMUs, and so there is an optimal set of weights corresponding to each DMU. The present paper, proposes a three stage method to determine one common set of weights for decision making units. Then, we use...

Increasing the discrimination power the decision making units based on reducing dispersion of weights in the data envelopment analysis

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 ...

The directional hybrid measure of efficiency in data envelopment analysis

The efficiency measurement is a subject of great interest. The majority of studies on DEA models have been carried out using radial or non-radial approaches regarding the application of DEA for the efficiency measurement. This paper, based on the directional distance function, proposes a new generalized hybrid measure of efficiency under generalized returns to scale with the existence of both r...
