Municipalities as well as any other organization have needed assessment and efficiency measurement to make better use of their limited resources and greater effectiveness. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficiency of municipalities, determining efficient and inefficient municipalities using data envelopment analysis, and classifying the municipalities using Anderson Peterson technique...

This paper presents the results of an efficiency study of Colombian public universities in 2012, conducted using the methodology of Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and the models CCR, BCC and SBM under output orientation. The main objective is to determine technical, pure technical, scale and mix efficiencies using data acquired from the Ministry of National Education. An analysis of the result...

Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is one of the best-known efficiency evaluation methods due to its advantages in selection of weights. Many research papers have extensively discussed the issue of weight restrictions, rather than those implied in the model itself. However, this often leads to a failure to represent the relations of certain weights, as well as underestimation of the efficiency of ...

the portfolio is a perfect combination of stock or assets, which an investor buys them. the objective of the portfolio is to divide the investment risk among several shares. using non-parametric dea and dea-r methods can be of great significance in estimating portfolio. in the present paper, the efficient portfolio is estimated by using non-radial dea and dea-r models. by proposing non-radial m...

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is an effective method to evaluate the relative efficiency of decision-making units (DMUs). In one hand, the DEA models need accurate inputs and outputs data. On the other hand, in many situations, inputs and outputs are volatile and complex so that they are difficult to measure in an accurate way. The conflict leads to the researches of uncertain DEA models. Thi...
