This article combines two techniques: data envelopment analysis (DEA) and Factor analysis (FA) to data reduction in decision making units (DMU). Data envelopment analysis (DEA), a popular linear programming technique is useful to rate comparatively operational efficiency of decision making units (DMU) based on their deterministic (not necessarily stochastic) input–output data and factor analysi...

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 nonparametric technique that includes models to evaluate the relative efficiency of decision making units (dmus). it has the ability to separate efficient units and inefficient units. one of the applications of this mathematical technique is evaluating performance of supply chain. according to such as the inefficiency factors of one dmu, is existence congest...

performance evaluation has been developed in the form of management schools along by managerial thought development. banks and financial institutes are one of the most important economic sections to each country which by receipts and payments directing and organizing facilitate business and commercial transactions and develop markets and economic growth and as the main pillars in directing and ...

inthis article we offer a method of ranking contractors by using dea based onanalysis deficit and ahp. the process of hierarchical analysis (ahp) byproviding scales from paired comparison matrix, performs the contractor’sprioritizing choice. but ahp has some problems and to solve those problems,jahanshahloo and his colleagues presented a new model which uses dea andstandard deviation. in this a...

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a method for measuring the efficiency of peer decision making units (DMUs). Recently network DEA models been developed to examine the efficiency of DMUs with internal structures. The internal network structures range from a simple two-stage process to a complex system where multiple divisions are linked together with intermediate measures. In general, there ar...

the present study is an attempt toward evaluating the performance of portfolios using mean-variance-skewness model with negative data. mean-variance non-linear framework and mean-variance-skewness non- linear framework had been proposed based on data envelopment analysis, which the variance of the assets had been used as an input to the dea and expected return and skewness were the output. conv...

one of the new topics in dea is the data with integer values. in dea classic models, it is assumed that input and output variables have real values. however, in many cases, some inputs or outputs can have integer values. measuring cost efficiency is another method to evaluate the performance and assess the capabilities of a single decision-making unit for manufacturing current products at a min...

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a non-parametric approach to evaluate a set of decision making units (DMUs) consuming multiple inputs to produce multiple outputs. Formally, DEA use to estimate the efficiency score into the empirical efficient frontier. Also, DEA can be used to allocate resources and set targets for future forecast. The data are continuous in the standard DEA model whereas th...

in this paper, we deal with fuzzy random variables for inputs andoutputs in data envelopment analysis (dea). these variables are considered as fuzzyrandom flat lr numbers with known distribution. the problem is to find a method forconverting the imprecise chance-constrained dea model into a crisp one. this can bedone by first, defuzzification of imprecise probability by constructing a suitablem...
