Interval data without sign restrictions in DEA

New DEA/Location Models with Interval Data

Recently the concept of facility efficiency, which defined by data envelopment analysis (DEA), introduced as a location modeling objective, that provides facilities location’s effect on their performance in serving demands. By combining the DEA models with the location problem, two types of “efficiencies” are optimized: spatial efficiency which measured by finding the least cost location and al...

DEA with Missing Data: An Interval Data Assignment Approach

In the classical data envelopment analysis (DEA) models, inputs and outputs are assumed as known variables, and these models cannot deal with unknown amounts of variables directly. In recent years, there are few researches on handling missing data. This paper suggests a new interval based approach to apply missing data, which is the modified version of Kousmanen (2009) approach. First, the prop...

Sensitivity Analysis of Units with Interval Data in DEA

Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) requires that the data for all inputs and outputs are known exactly. When some outputs and inputs are known decision variables, such as interval data and ordinal data, the DEA models becomes a nonlinear programming problem and is called imprecise DEA (IDEA). When data assume to be interval, decision making units (DMUs) can divide to three classes as follows: (I) ...
