In this paper, we re-examine Data Envelopment Analysis models from perspectives of preference order, production set and performance measure. we investigate the relationship between Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and Multiple Criteria Decision Making Theory. There are three key building blocks in a DEA model: preference order, production possibility set and performance measure. It is shown in t...

In this study, we propose a new Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) training approach that closes the gap between ANN and Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA), and has the advantage of giving similar results to DEA and being easier to compute. Our method is based on extreme point selection in a bandwidth while determining the training set, and it gives better results than the traditional ANN approach. ...

Firms have become increasingly customer-centric, implying that customers, rather than products, are treated as the most important asset of a firm. The switch to customer-centric strategies also implies firms collecting an enormous amount customer-related data. purpose this paper is propose DEA-based methodology determine contribution customer segments firm value. We show practical usefulness ou...

Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) was developed to help compare the relative performance of decision-making units. It is a non-parametric method for performing frontier analysis. It uses linear programming to estimate the efficiency of multiple decision-making units and it is commonly used in production, management and economics [3]. DEA generates an efficiency score between 0 and 1 for each unit...

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 ...

This article explains how data envelopment analysis can be used as a decision support system to perform financial statement analysis and demonstrates the benefits DEA offers over traditional financial statement analysis techniques. A major advantage of the DEA approach is that it clearly identifies the factors contributing to the performance of company over its competitors.

This paper presents a simplified version of Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) a conventional approach to evaluating the performance and ranking of competitive objects characterized by two groups of factors acting in opposite directions: inputs and outputs. DEA with a Perfect Object (DEA PO) augments the group of actual objects with a virtual Perfect Object the one having greatest outputs and smal...

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) has been a wildly used powerful method to measure efficiencies of decision making units (DMUs). However, DEA efficiency scores are influenced by uncontrollable factors for respective DMUs. Previous studies attempted separating such factors from DEA scores. Fried et al. [4] proposed a multi-stage data adjustment approach using DEA and a regression model, and sever...

The conventional data envelopment analysis (DEA) measures the relative efficiencies of a set of decision making units (DMUs) with exact value of inputs and outputs. For imprecise data, i.e., mixtures of interval data and ordinal data, some methods have been developed to calculate the interval of the efficiency scores. This paper constructs a procedure to measure the efficiencies of DMUs with mi...
