credit scoring is a kind of binary classification problem that contains important information for manager to make a decision in particularly in banking authorities. obtained scores provide a practical credit decision for a loan officer to classify clients to reject or accept for payment loan. for this sake, in this paper a data envelopment analysis- discriminant analysis (dea-da) approach is us...

background: nowadays, restriction on access and optimum use of resources is the main challenge of development in all organizations. therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the technical efficiency and its factors, influencing hospitals of tehran. methods: this research was a descriptive-analytical and retrospective study conducted in 2014-2015. fifty two hospitals with public, private...

  For efficiency evaluation of some of the Decision Making Units that have uncertain information, Rough Data Envelopment Analysis technique is used, which is derived from rough set theorem and Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). In some situations rough data alter nonradially. To this end, this paper proposes additive rough–DEA model and illustrates the proposed model by a numerical example.

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a mathematical programming-based approach for evaluates the relative efficiency of a set of dmus (decision making units). the relative efficiency of a dmu is the result of comparing the inputs and outputs of the dmu and those of other dmus in the pps (production possibility set). also, in data envelopment analysis various models have been developed in order to...

So far, many types of location models have been developed to find optimal spatial patterns according to different spatial metrics such as cost, coverage and availability.  The initial focus of these models is on the location availability of service providers and demand estimates, and some of these models are within the framework of multi-objective programming models.  After the advent of scienc...

the cross efficiency evaluation is used to performance measurement of decision making units in data envelopment analysis concept. one of the most important shortcoming of this method is existing alternative optimal solution and therefore, the efficiency scores are not unique. we are going to summarize the pervious models proposed by researchers and suggest an alternative secondary goal approach...

data envelopment analysis (dea) has been long employed as a popular methodology to evaluate the performance of various production activities with multiple inputs and outputs. however, an important issue is that the production process in the real world inevitably generates undesirable outputs (like wastes and pollutants) along with desirable outputs. therefore, the undesirable outputs should be ...

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a method used for measuring the efficiency of decision-making units‎. unlike the standard models‎, ‎which assume decision-making units to be a black box‎, ‎network data envelopment analysis focuses on the internal structure of these units‎. ‎some researchers have developed a two-stage method where all the inputs are entirely used in the first stage‎, ‎producin...

introduction: we investigated the characteristic of a suitable irradiation on skin's tensional strength using design of experiments (doe). the experiments in this research are designed in two phases and data envelopment analysis (dea) is used for performance measurement of each phase. material and methods: samples were provided from pleura as surface tissue made of collagen and elastin fib...
