Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is an efficient method to perform evaluation of units. In DEA we try to evaluate units with undesirable factors in input & outputs by satisfaction function, testing some models. On the other hand benefiting this concept, we can identify non-efficient units. Also we can recognize why these units are inefficient and calculate the reason of their inefficiency and ho...

While the conventional DEA based production plans aim to minimize all the inputs consumption and maximize all the outputs production, there are many real world production systems may also generate undesirable by-products. One methodological difficulty associated with the previous DEA-based production planning models is how to incorporate undesirable factors in the planning models, while the sim...

Introduction:  In order to assess echocardiographic left ventricular functional indices in patients with differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC), after L-T4 withdrawal (short-term overt hypothyroidism) and during TSH suppressive therapy, we have evaluated cardiac hemodynamics in a single cohort study. Methods: 24 patients with DTC were studied in two phases: 1: at least 4 weeks after L-T4 withd...

background: autoxidation is considered to be the main route of edible oil deterioration, which produces undesirable odors and flavors during storage and heating. the unpleasant flavor of oxidized oil has been attributed to primary and secondary products of unsaturated fatty acids. the microwave heating is a rapid method when compared with other methods of heating. objective: in this research, t...

Today, banks, as intermediaries, seek to attract and allocate resources to obtain greater benefit. Therefore, the bank assessment is considered as an important subject in the banking industry. Data envelopment analysis is an effective technique in evaluating the efficiency of decision-making units. There are factors among banking indices (such as receivables from resource allocation) that are i...
