Improving envelopment in data envelopment analysis by means of unobserved DMUs: an application of banking industry
In data envelopment analysis, the relative efficiency of a decision making unit (DMU) is defined as the ratio of the sum of its weighted outputs to the sum of its weighted inputs allowing the DMUs to freely allocate weights to their inputs/outputs. However, this measure may not reflect a the true efficiency of a DMU because some of its inputs/outputs may not contribute reasonably in computing t...
متن کاملA Value Efficiency-Based Target Setting Approach in Data Envelopment Analysis
Basic models of Data Envelopment Analysis are intrinsically preference-free, in the sense that they consider all inputs and outputs and also all decision making units of the same importance. Although this property is beneficial in many ways, it has some drawbacks simultaneously, as the decision makers’ preferences are not taken into account in the process of evaluating units. To overcome this ...
متن کاملCooperative Decision Making of DERs in a Joint Energy and Regulation Market in Presence of Electric Vehicles
Today due to increasing and evolving of electrical grids, the optimal and profitable energy production is among producers' major concerns. Thus, conventional ways of production and trading energy are being replaced by modern economical procedures. In addition, distributed energy resources (DERs) in form of renewable and conventional resources as well as responsive loads play an important role i...
متن کاملRanking Efficient Decision Making Units Using Cooperative Game Theory Based on SBM Input-Oriented Model and Nucleolus Value
In evaluating the efficiency of decision making units (DMUs) by Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) models, may be more than one DMU has an efficiency score equal to one. Since ranking of efficient DMUs is essential for decision makers, therefore, methods and models for this purpose are presented. One of ranking methods of efficient DMUs is cooperative game theory. In this study, Lee and Lozano mod...
متن کاملWeight restrictions in Data Envelopment Analysis: A comprehensive Genetic Algorithm based approach for incorporating value judgments
The basic DEA model experiences the weights flexibility problem which is resolved by the method of weight restrictions. The current research incorporating Decision Makers’ (DMs) preferences into weight restrictions is subject to serious limitations such as lacking a framework for dual role factors and not incorporating organizational hierarchy in decision-making. The proposed Genetic Algorithm ...
