‎in this paper, we present a two-stage model for ranking of decision making units (dmus) using interval analytic hierarchy process (ahp). since the efficiency score of unity is assigned to the efficient units, we evaluate the efficiency of each dmu by basic dea models and calculate the weights of the criteria using proposed model. in the first stage, the proposed model evaluates decision making...

This study utilizes the Data Envelopment Efficiency (DEA) model to assess input–output efficiency from two perspectives. First, not considering the distribution of interval data, we introduce an adjusted parameter to transform interval data to determination data. Second, by contrast, we take into account the distribution characteristics of interval data and test the DEA model with interval data...

The paper deals with models and methods for evaluation of efficiency of production units. The standard modeling approach for evaluation of efficiency is data envelopment analysis (DEA) based on the definition of efficiency as the ratio of outputs produced by the unit and inputs spent in the production process. Standard data envelopment analysis models divide the units into inefficient and effic...

In this brief note,  using the technique of measures of noncompactness, we give some extensions of Darbo fixed point theorem. Also we prove  an existence result for a quadratic  integral equation of Hammerstein type on an unbounded interval in two variables  which includes several classes of nonlinear integral equations of Hammerstein type. Furthermore, an example is presented to show the effic...

We present a numerical method for a class of boundary value problems on the unit interval which feature a type of exponential and product nonlinearities. Also, we consider singular case. We construct a kind of spectral collocation method based on shifted Jacobi polynomials to implement this method. A number of specific numerical examples demonstrate the accuracy and the efficiency of the propos...

The cross-efficiency method, as a Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) extension, calculates the cross efficiency of each decision making unit (DMU) using the weights of all decision making units (DMUs). The major advantage of the cross-efficiency method is that it can provide a complete ranking for all DMUs. In addition, the cross-efficiency method could eliminate unrealistic weight results. Howeve...

  A data envelopment analysis (DEA) method can be regarded as a useful management tool to evaluate decision making units (DMUs) using multiple inputs and outputs. In some cases, we face with imprecise inputs and outputs, such as fuzzy or interval data, so the efficiency of DMUs will not be exact. Most researchers have been interested in getting efficiency and ranking DMUs recently. Models of th...
