Abstract:

One of the important issues in data envelopment analysis (DEA) is sensitivity analysis. Heretofore the existent studies have considered the data modification of inputs and outputs in one or multiple DMUs. In this paper the number of DMUs is increased and a stability region is obtained in  by applying defining hyperplanes in which if the added DMU (only one DMU) is in this region then all of the extreme efficient units will be remained on the frontier. Then it is shown that the obtained region is the largest stability region. Finally the mentioned stability region for a number of DMUs is obtained and the results are reported.

Stability of RTS of Efficient DMUs in DEA with Fuzzy

An important property of production functions is the concept return to scale (RTS) as found in the literature. There are two common variations RTS in data envelopment analysis (DEA) used, constant return to scale (CRS) and variation return to scale (VRS). The envelopment surface in BCC model is VRS and this is the result of the presence of the convexity constraint in the dual model and, equival...

Sensitivity and Stability Analysis in DEA: Some Recent Developments

This paper surveys recently developed analytical methods for studying the sensitivity of DEA results to variations in the data. The focus is on the stability of classification of DMUs (Decision Making Units) into efficient and inefficient performers. Early work on this topic concentrated on developing solution methods and algorithms for conducting such analyses after it was noted that standard ...

Sensitivity and Stability Analysis in Uncertain Data Envelopment (DEA)

As a useful management and decision tool, data envelopment analysis (DEA) has become a pop area of research. One of the topics of interests in DEA is sensitivity and stability analysis of decision making units (DMUs). Due to the uncertainty of the data in real life, this paper will give some DEA models in fuzzy environment. It is followed by a series analysis of sensitivity and stability for al...
