Creating Full Envelopment in Data Envelopment Analysis with Variable Returns to Scale Technology
In this paper, weak defining hyperplanes and the anchor points in DEA, as an important subset of the set of extreme efficient points of the Production Possibility Set (PPS), are used to construct unobserved DMUs and in the long run to improve the envelopment of all observed DMUs. There has been a surge of articles on improving envelopment in recent years. What has been done first is in Constant...
متن کاملAn investigation of returns to scale in data envelopment analysis
This paper discusses the determination of returns to scale (RTS) in data envelopment analysis (DEA). Three basic RTS methods and their modi®cations are reviewed and the equivalence between these dierent RTS methods is presented. The eect of multiple optimal DEA solutions on the RTS estimation is studied. It is shown that possible alternate optimal solutions only aect the estimation of RTS on...
متن کاملEstimating Returns to Scale in the Presence of Undesirable Factors in Data Envelopment Analysis
This research identifies returns to scale (RTS) of efficient decision making units (DMUs) with desirable (good) and undesirable (bad) inputs and outputs by presenting a new DEA (data envelopment analysis) approach. In this study, we first introduce a new input-output oriented model to determine efficient DMUs in the presence of undesirable factors and then, returns to scale of these DMUs are es...

متن کاملTwo Methods for Measuring the Environmental Returns to Scale Using Data Envelopment Analysis Approach
Nowadays, the assessment of environmental performance has received considerable attention by environmental strategy advocators and decision makers. In recent years, increased emission of CO2 into the air, water pollution, and global warming are universal problems all over the world. Therefore, development of firms with less CO2 emission is an important issue of attention in every area of produc...
