Abstract:

One of the difficulties of Data Envelopment Analysis(DEA) is the problem of deciency discriminationamong efficient Decision Making Units(DMUs) and hence, yielding large number of DMUs as efficientones. The main purpose of this paper is to overcome this inability. One of the methods for rankingefficient DMUs is minimizing the Coefficient of Variation (CV) for inputs-outputs weights. In this paper,it is introduced a nonlinear model for ranking efficient DMUs based on the minimizing the mean absolutedeviation of weights and then we convert the nonlinear model proposed into a linear programming form.

Ranking efficient DMUs using minimizing distance in DEA

In many applications, ranking of decision making units (DMUs) is a problematic technical task procedure to decision makers in data envelopment analysis (DEA), especially when there are extremely efficient DMUs. In such cases, many DEA models may usually get the same efficiency score for different DMUs. Hence, there is a growing interest in ranking techniques yet. The main purpose of this paper ...

Ranking Efficient DMUs in Two-stage Network DEA with Common Weights method

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...
