One of the weak points of DEA (Data Envelopment Analysis) models indicated in literature [1,2] is their sensitivity to variable measurement errors. The occurrence of data interference, which is the basis of the productivity analysis, may distort the classification of the units and may cause misjudgement of their effectiveness. In the article the results of simulation concerning the DEA models s...

This article compares two techniques: Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and Factor Analysis (FA) to aggregate multiple inputs and outputs in the evaluation of decision making units (DMU). Dِata envelopment analysis (DEA), a popular linear programming technique, is useful to rate comparatively operational efficiency of DMUs based on their deterministic or stochastic input–output data. Factor analys...

This paper suggests a method of finding super-efficiency scores and modification of input-oriented models for sensitivity analysis of decision making units. First, by using DEA-R (ratiobased DEA) models in the input orientation, the models of superefficiency and also models of super-efficiency modification are suggested. Second, the worst-case scenarios are considered where the efficiency of th...

DEA (Deta Envelopment Analysis) is a non-parametric technique for measuring the efficiency of DMUs (Decision Making Units)with common inputs and outputs [2,5]. viewpoint for each DMU because of taking a maximum ratio. During recent years, the issue of sensitivity and stability of data envelopment analysis results has been extensively studied. The first DEA sensitivity analysis paper by Charnes ...

the ways of placing decision making units (dmus) in certain clusters are found as a subject in statistics, these ways usually are heuristic. the proposed clustering approach in this article considers preferences of dmus. this study applies data envelopment analysis (dea) dmus are clustered by solving multi-objective linear problem (molp) and by considering preferences of each dmu at production ...

As a non-parametric method of relative efficient measurement of a group of decision-making units (〖DMU〗_s), Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is one of the most important tools in efficiency computation. One of the main concerns dealt with in DEA is dealing with return to scale in two-stage processes in which, produced outputs of the first stage inputs are used as inputs for the second stage. The...

Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is a method for measuring the efficiency of peer decision making units (DMUs) with multiple inputs and outputs. The traditional DEA treats decision making units under evaluation as black boxes and calculates their efficiencies with first inputs and last outputs. This carries the notion of missing some intermediate measures in the process of changing the inputs to...

Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) has become an established approach in efficiency improving strategies in industrial and regional programming. The aim of the present paper is to propose a new and recently developed Distance Friction Minimization (DFM) model in the context of DEA in order to provide an appropriate efficiency-improving projection model. The standard DEA models, including the Charn...

The main difference between conventional data envelopment analysis (DEA) and network (NDEA) lies in the internal structure of a decision-making unit (DMU). Most existing NDEA methodologies neglect to address issue incorporating influence intermediate, directly objective function. To overcome this shortcoming, paper, based on feature SBM model, researcher is setting an NSBM model for evaluating ...

In the traditional cost-efficiency model, the information about each decision unit includes inputs, outputs, and the input prices are fixed and specific. In practice, the price of the inputs often fluctuates at different times, and these prices for the decision-making unit are time-dependent. By the traditional method, the efficiency of decision units is impossible in the presence of time-depen...
