چکیده

in the use of peer group data to assess individual, typical or best practice performance, the effective detection of outliers is critical for achieving useful results. in these ‘‘deterministic’’ frontier models, statistical theory is now mostly available. this paper deals with the statistical pared sample method and its capability of detecting outliers in data envelopment analysis. in the presented method, each observation is deleted from the sample once and the resulting linear program is solved, leading to a distribution of efficiency estimates. based on the achieved distribution, a pared test is designed to identify the potential outlier(s). we illustrate the method through a real data set. the method could be used in a first step, as an exploratory data analysis, before using any frontier estimation.

A Common Weight Data Envelopment Analysis Approach for Material Selection

Material selection is one of the major problems in manufacturing environments since the improper selected material may lead to fail in the production processes and result in customer dissatisfaction and cost inefficiency. Every material has different properties which should be considered as major criteria during the material selection procedure. Selection criteria could be quantitative or quali...

Outlier test for a group of multivariate observations

Assume that we have m independent random samples each of size n from Np(; ) and our goal is to test whether or not the ith sample is an outlier (i=1,2,…..m). To date it is well known that a test statistics exist whose null distribution is Betta and given the relationship between Betta and F distribution, an F test statistic can be used. In the statistical literature however a clear and preci...
