The existing Data Envelopment Analysis models for evaluating the relative eciency of a set of decision making units by using various inputs to produce various outputs are limited to crisp data in crisp production possibility set. In this paper, rst of all the production possibility set is extended to the fuzzy production possibility set by extension principle in constant return to scale, and th...

by John Abowd ~f,.-~~~ · ¢. ~ ~ Before a crowd of more than 600 students Monday the ;1 ' :"\ Student Life Council returned the proposed sanctions for violation of University rules to a new committee. The SLC charged the steering committee and Prof. William Eagan, chairman, with appointing the committee and scheduling an open hearing on the proposed sanctions. The students, who filled the Engine...

In the paper we study closures of classes of log–concave measures under taking weak limits, linear transformations and tensor products. We consider what uniform measures on convex bodies can one obtain starting from some class K. In particular we prove that if one starts from one–dimensional log–concave measures, one obtains no non– trivial uniform mesures on convex bodies.

in the present study, an attempt has been made to use data envelopment analysis (dea) for assessing the technical efficiency and return-to-scale for greenhouse cucumber production in iran. for this purpose, the data from greenhouses in esfahan province, during one period of plant cultivation in one year including spring plants were randomly collected. the results indicated that total input ener...

nor is it progressive to keep him indefinitely in a sheltered occupation: though both these alternatives are better than no job at all, and may be temporary expedients. This is not simply a matter of the individual's welfare: it is of vital concern to the community too, for the wastage of productivity from neurotic illness due both to absence from work and to inefficiency at work costs the coun...

in this article, we will estimate efficiency amountof decision-making unit by offering the continuous piecewise polynomialextrapolation and interpolation by ccr model input-oriented on the assumptionthat it is constant returns to scale in different times. and finally, we willestimate efficiency amount of decision-making unit indifferent times byoffering an example.

sueyoshi and sekitani in 2007 presented a paper that explores the measurement of returns to scale under a possible occurrence of multiple solution in a reference set and a supporting hyperplane. the occurrence ofmultiple solutions is classified into type i and type ii. type i is an occurrence of multiple solutions in a reference set. type ii is an occurrence of multiple solutions on a supportin...

OBJECTIVE Despite the high prevalence of psychiatric emergency (PE) visits for attempted suicide and nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) among adolescents, we have limited information about assessment tools that are helpful in predicting subsequent risk for suicide attempts among adolescents in PE settings. This study examined the predictive validity of a highly promising instrument, the Columbia-Su...
