Sensitivity Analysis in Two-Stage DEA
Authors
Abstract:
Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a method for measuring the efficiency of peer decision making units (DMUs) which uses a set of inputs to produce a set of outputs. In some cases, DMUs have a two-stage structure, in which the first stage utilizes inputs to produce outputs used as the inputs of the second stage to produce final outputs. One important issue in two-stage DEA is the sensitivity of the results of an analysis to perturbations in the data. The current paper looks into combined model for two-stage DEA and applies the sensitivity analysis to DMUs on the entire frontier. In fact, necessary and sufficient conditions for preserving a DMU's efficiency classiffication are developed when various data changes are applied to all DMUs.

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a method for measuring the efficiency of peer decision making units (dmus) which uses a set of inputs to produce a set of outputs. in some cases, dmus have a two-stage structure, in which the first stage utilizes inputs to produce outputs used as the inputs of the second stage to produce final outputs. one important issue in two-stage dea is the sensitivity of...
full textMixed two-stage derivative estimator for sensitivity analysis
In mathematical modeling, determining most influential parameters on outputs is of major importance. Thus, sensitivity analysis of parameters plays an important role in model validation. We give detailed procedure of constructing a new derivative estimator for general performance measure in Gaussian systems. We will take advantage of using score function and measure-value derivative estimators ...
full textTwo-Stage DEA: Caveat Emptor
This paper examines the wide-spread practice where data envelopment analysis (DEA) efficiency estimates are regressed on some environmental variables in a secondstage analysis. In the literature, only two statistical models have been proposed in which second-stage regressions are well-defined and meaningful. In the model considered by Simar and Wilson (2007), truncated regression provides consi...

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a linear programming problem approach for evaluating the relative efficiency of peer decision making units (DMUs) that have multiple inputs and outputs. DMUs can have a two-stage structure where all the outputs from the first stage are the only inputs to the second stage, in addition to the inputs to the first stage and the outputs from the second stage. The o...

This paper presents an extended two-stage data envelopment analysis (DEA) method for analyzing water resource use efficiency (WRUE) and related WRUE issues, which was developed by introducing regional water resource metabolic theory into the two-stage DEA method. It has the following advantages: (1) it has the ability to reflect the inner difference and connection of the regional water resource...

Data envelopment analysis is a nonparametric technique checking efficiency of DMUs using math programming. In conventional DEA, it has been assumed that the status of each measure is clearly known as either input or output. Kao and Hwang (2008) developed a data envelopment analysis (DEA) approach for measuring efficiency of decision processes which can be divided into two stages. The first stag...
