Yield Prediction Modeling Using Data Envelopment Analysis Methodology for Direct Seeding, Wetland Paddy Cultivation

Machinery Utilization and Production Cost of Wetland, Direct Seeding Paddy Cultivation in Malaysia

A mean mechanization index of 0.59 and a total machinery energy of 477.78 MJ/ha were recorded for the direct seeding paddy cultivation in Malaysia. Highest mechanization index and machinery energy were obtained in the harvesting operation (0.99 and 336.81 MJ/ha) while the lowest values were in pesticides operations (0.19 and 3.97 MJ/ha). The benefit-cost ratios for an average farmer with and wi...

Efficient location by using data envelopment analysis

So far, many types of location models have been developed to find optimal spatial patterns according to different spatial metrics such as cost, coverage and availability.  The initial focus of these models is on the location availability of service providers and demand estimates, and some of these models are within the framework of multi-objective programming models.  After the advent of scienc...

Developing a Data Envelopment Analysis Methodology for Supplier Selection in the Presence of Fuzzy Undesirable Factors

Data envelopment analysis for imprecise data in Buyer-Seller Relationship

In the environment of business‐to‐business e‐commerce, Buyers and sellers in mature industrial markets can turn single transactions into long-term beneficial relationships by a deeper understanding of the complex connection between the two and buyers and sellers are uncertain about their roles. A “must-do” for the sellers, in particular, is to understand patterns of investment and reward,...

Fuzzy Data Envelopment Analysis for Classification of Streaming Data

The classification of fuzzy uncertain data is considered one of the most challenging issues in data analysis. In spite of the significance of fuzzy data in mathematical programming, the development of the analytical methods of fuzzy data is slow. Therefore, the current study proposes a new fuzzy data classification method based on fuzzy data envelopment analysis (DEA) which can handle strea...
