چکیده

Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is a technique for measuring the efficiency of a set of Decision Making Units (DMUs) with common data, but in general it is not practical. This paper presents a framework where DEA is used to measure overall profit efficiency with fuzzy data. Specifically, it is shown that as the inputs, outputs and price vectors are fuzzy numbers, the DMUs cannot be easily evaluated. Thus, presenting a new method for computing the efficiency of DMUs with fuzzy data will be benefic. Also, it presents where DEA is used to measure overall profit of efficiency with interval and fuzzy inputs and outputs and an interval will be defined for the efficiency. The proposed method give the best and the worst overall profit efficiency for DMUs. The method is illustrated by solving numerical examples. AMS Subject Classification: 91E45; 28E10.

Measuring robust overall profit efficiency with uncertainty in input and output price vectors

The classic overall profit needs precise information of inputs, outputs, inputs and outputs price vectors. In real word, all data are not certain. Therefore, in this case, stochastic and fuzzy methods use for measuring overall profit efficiency. These methods require more information about the data such as probability distribution function or data membership function, which in some cases may no...

An overall profit Malmquist productivity index with fuzzy and interval data

Although crisp data are fundamentally indispensable for determining the profit Malmquist productivity index (MPI), the observed values in real-world problems are often imprecise or vague. These imprecise or vague data can be suitably characterized with fuzzy and interval methods. In this paper, we reformulate the conventional profit MPI problem as an imprecise data envelopment analysis (DEA) pr...

Measuring the overall performances of decision-making units in the presence of imprecise data

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a method for measuring the relative efficiencies of a set of decision-making units (DMUs) that use multiple inputs to produce multiple outputs. In this paper, we study the measurement of DMU performances in DEA in situations where input and/or output values are given as imprecise data. By imprecise data we mean situations where we only know that the actual val...
