Negative data in DEA: a simple proportional distance function approach
The need to adapt Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and other frontier models in the context of negative data has been a rather neglected issue in the literature. A recent article in this journal proposed a variation on the directional distance function, a very general distance function that is dual to the profit function, to accommodate the occurrence of negative data. In this contribution, we d...
متن کاملNegative data in DEA: a directional distance approach applied to bank branches
This paper is drawn from the use of data envelopment analysis (DEA) in helping a Portuguese bank to manage the performance of its branches. The bank wanted to set targets for the branches on such variables as growth in number of clients, growth in funds deposited and so on. Such variables can take positive and negative values but apart from some exceptions, traditional DEA models have hitherto ...

متن کاملA novel radial super-efficiency DEA model handling negative data
Super-efficiency model in the presence of negative data is a relatively neglected issue in the DEA field. The existing super-efficiency models have some shortcomings in practice. In this paper, a novel VRS radial super-efficiency DEA model based on Directional Distance Function (DDF) is proposed to provide a complete ranking order of units (including efficient and inefficient ones). The propose...
متن کاملA directional distance based super-efficiency DEA model handling negative data
This paper develops a new radial super-efficiency data envelopment analysis (DEA) model, which allows input-output variables to take both negative and positive values. Compared with existing DEA models capable of dealing with negative data, the proposed model can rank the efficient DMUs and is feasible no matter whether the input-output data are nonnegative or not. It successfully addresses the...
