Integrated dynamic interval data envelopment analysis in the presence of integer and negative data

Capacity utilization in data envelopment analysis with integer data

In the process of production, some of the inputs are fixed and cannot easily be changed, such as work hours of workers and hours of administrative or work, these types of inputs are fixed and others are variables. In this paper, by considering some inputs or outputs which are limited, their amounts must be integrated; this concept for integer data is extended. We show the importance of subject ...

Interval network data envelopment analysis model for classification of investment companies in the presence of uncertain data

The main purpose of this paper is to propose an approach for performance measurement, classification and ranking the investment companies (ICs) by considering internal structure and uncertainty. In order to reach this goal, the interval network data envelopment analysis (INDEA) models are extended. This model is capable to model two-stage efficiency with intermediate measures i...

Data Envelopment Analysis Models In The Presence Of Ratio Data and Non-Discretionary Factors

Classifying inputs and outputs in interval data envelopment analysis

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is an approach to measure the relative efficiency of decision-making units with multiple inputs and multiple outputs using mathematical programming. In the traditional DEA, it is assumed that we know the input or output role of each performance measure. But in some situations, the type of performance measure is unknown. These performance measures are called flexi...

Weak Disposability in Integer-Valued Data Envelopment Analysis

Conventional data envelopment analysis (DEA) models normally assume all inputs and outputs are real valued and continuous. However in problems some inputs and outputs can only take integer values, also, both desirable and undesirable outputs can be generated . In this paper the effect of undesirable outputs in integer DEA model is discussed. The proposed model distinguishes weak disposability o...
