The two-stage Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is widely applied to assess the efficiency of commercial banks in recent years. Even though this approach well simulates sequence bank’s production process, independent operations within sub-stage are generally ignored, and cooperative or non-cooperative relations between sub-stages usually investigated separately. Commercial banking system, however...

Supply chain management is the combination of art and science that goes into improving the supply chain. In some cases of supply chain especially two-stage process, differing weights for the same factors, may not acceptable. The purpose of this paper is a performance evaluation of two-stage using DEA and based on a CSW model and this method for ranking two-stage and could be used to measure the...

Diethanolamine (DEA) is a common ingredient of personal care products. Dermal administration of DEA diminishes hepatic stores of the essential nutrient choline and alters brain development. We previously reported that 80 mg/kg/day of DEA during pregnancy in mice reduced neurogenesis and increased apoptosis in the fetal hippocampus. This study was designed to establish the dose-response relation...

‎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...

The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the performance of a sample of natural resources exchange traded funds (ETFs) by applying a two-stage procedure. In the first stage, the generalized proportional distance function (GPDF) in the data envelopment analysis (DEA) context is used for the first time to measure the relative efficiency of sectoral ETFs. In the second stage, a Tobit model is empl...

‎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...

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a useful mathematical tool for evaluating the performance of production units and ranking their relative efficiency. In many real-world applications, belong to several separate groups also consist sub-units. this paper, we introduce new method group efficiency two-stage systems. To end, some DEA models are introduced systems based on average weakest criteria. ...
