This paper examines the multi-dimensional efficiency of Islamic banking sector and its determinants, including impacts COVID-19 pandemic. To do that, we use a novel approach two-stage data envelopment analysis (DEA) double frontiers to evaluate overall 79 banks across 16 countries (2005–2020). In first-stage analysis, found that experienced an increasing trend in performance, even during recent...

The study presents an empirical analysis of best practice production and cost frontiers for a sample of 94 acute care hospitals by applying Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and a regression model, in a two-stage approach. This paper contributes to the DEA and efficiency measurement literatures by adding results from a homogeneous method of partitioning cost efficiency into its allocative (or pri...

Abstract Mergers and acquisitions (M&A) are important parts of banking reform, which can increase the synergies reduce costs banks. To analyze effect importance M&A in reform period, we measure productivity change China’s banks who completed during 2004– 2018, by using a two-stage data envelopment analysis (DEA) method. First, incorporate process deposits producing profit earning as str...

Abstract Heart patients displays several symptoms and it is hard to point them. Data envelopment analysis (DEA) provides a comparative efficiency degree for each decision-making units (DMUs) with several inputs and outputs. Evaluating of hospitals is one of the major applications in DEA. In this study, a comparison of additive model with standard input oriented and output oriented M...

Financial holding companies in Taiwan play an important role in the process of economic development. Facing the financial globalization and market liberalization, competition between financial holding companies is growing. In data envelopment analysis (DEA) studies, the efficiency measurement can have a two-stage structure. A common approach to the two-stage problem is to apply a standard DEA m...

The current study investigates performance in two-stage production systems through the measurement of capacity utilization (CU). In short-run, the degree of capacity utilization depends on the ability of decision making units to utilize fixed production factors. To develop this indicator in two-stage production processes, a modified SBM network DEA model is proposed. A numerical example is also...

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a method for measuring the efficiency of peer decision making units (DMUs). This tool has been utilized by a number of authors to examine two-stage processes, where all the outputs from the first stage are the only inputs to the second stage. The current article examines and extends these models using game theory concepts. The resulting models are linear, and ...

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a method used for measuring the efficiency of decision-making units‎. unlike the standard models‎, ‎which assume decision-making units to be a black box‎, ‎network data envelopment analysis focuses on the internal structure of these units‎. ‎some researchers have developed a two-stage method where all the inputs are entirely used in the first stage‎, ‎producin...
