Measuring DMU-efficiency by modified cross-efficiency approach

چکیده
A fundamental weakness of the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is its weak discrimination in cases when a small number of decision making units are compared. Therefore, in such cases the basic DEA model (optimistic and pessimistic) is used in combination with other methods or additional constraints are added to the model. In this paper, the cross-efficiency method was combined with a self-ranking procedure which uses the Potential Method (PM). The results are similar to those of Wang and others [15] based on the Geometric Mean (GM). Another interesting result is that a preorder “domination by inputs” and ordinal ranking derived from it produce results very close to those obtained by GM and PM.

متن کاملMeasuring 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...
متن کاملCross Redundancy in the Modified Input-Oriented Variable-return-to-Scale DEA Models
Abstract: Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is a mathematical programming method for the assessment of relative efficiency of a set of Decision Making Units (DMUs) that use several inputs to produce several outputs. It measures the efficiency of each Decision Making Unit (DMU) by maximizing the ratio of virtual output to virtual input with the constraint that the ratio does not exceed one for eac...
متن کاملTotal and Partial efficiency indexes in data envelopment analysis
Introduction: Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a data-oriented method for measuring and benchmarking the relative efficiency of peer decision making units (DMUs) with multiple inputs and multiple outputs. DEA was initiated in 1978 when Charnes, Cooper and Rhodes (CCR) demonstrated how to change a fractional linear measure of efficiency into a linear programming format. This non-parametric app...
متن کاملThe use of OWA operator weights for cross-efficiency aggregation
Cross-efficiency evaluation is an effective way of ranking decision making units (DMUs) in data envelopment analysis (DEA). Existing approaches for cross-efficiency evaluation are mainly focused on the calculation of cross-efficiency matrix, but pay little attention to the aggregation of the efficiencies in the cross-efficiency matrix. The most widely used approach is to aggregate the efficienc...
