Scaling production and improving efficiency in DEA: an interactive approach
DEA models help a DMU to detect its (in-)efficiency and to improve activities, if necessary. Efficiency is only one economic aim for a decision-maker; however, up- or downsizing might be a second one. Improving efficiency is the main topic in DEA; the long-term strategy towards the right production size should attract our attention as well. Not always the management of a DMU primarily focuses o...
متن کاملMedical profiling: improving standards and risk adjustments using hierarchical models.
The conclusions from a profile analysis to identify performance extremes can be affected substantially by the standards and statistical methods used and by the adequacy of risk adjustment. Medically meaningful standards are proposed to replace common statistical standards. Hierarchical regression methods can handle several levels of random variation, make risk adjustments for the providers' cas...
متن کاملImproving Dental Care Recommendation Systems Using Patient and Dentist Profiling
Online social networks are emerging in a fast pace as people have started to rely on the information presented on such platforms as a source for many day-to-day activities such as travel, shopping, healthcare, weather and even government services. However, the usage seems to be far less for the healthcare and dental care recommendation sites. This paper investigates whether adding profiling wou...
متن کاملPractical benchmarking in DEA using artificial DMUs
Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is one of the most efficient tools for efficiency measurement which can be employed as a benchmarking method with multiple inputs and outputs. However, DEA does not provide any suggestions for improving efficient units, nor does it provide any benchmark or reference point for these efficient units. Impracticability of these benchmarks under environmental conditio...
متن کاملEvaluating academic activities using DEA
The paper uses Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) to assess the efficiency of the Depertments of the University of Trieste, considering both research and teaching issues. General guidelines for selecting input and output flows are proposed, different DEA models are considered and discussed, and the quantitative outcomes of the evaluation are analyzed.
