Abstract: The radial measures of classical DEA models (CCR, BCC) are incomplete, they are only separate measures of input and output efficiency and their efficiency index omit the non-zero input and output slacks. Enhanced Russell graph measure (ERM) eliminates these deficiencies. All of the existing fuzzy DEA models are extension of CCR or BCC model, efficiencies of DMUs, ultimately, are solut...

The stochastic data envelopment analysis (SDEA) was developed considering the value ofinputs and outputs as random variables. Therefore, statistical distributions play an importantrole in this regard. The skew-normal (SN) distribution is a family of probability densityfunctions that is frequently used in practical situations. In this paper, we assume that the inputand output variables are skew-...

introduction: due to increased costs of health sector, much effort has been done to compare the performance of hospitals and measure their efficiency in recent years. the purpose of this study was to evaluate the relative efficiency of public and private hospitals in qom during 2007 using data envelopment analysis (dea) approach. methods: this was an applied and analytic study. the study popula...

This paper discusses returns to scale (RTS) in data envelopment analysis (DEA) for each of the presently available types of models. The BCC and CCR models are treated in input oriented forms while the multiplicative model is treated in output oriented form. (This distinction is not pertinent for the additive model which simultaneously maximizes outputs and minimizes inputs in the sense of a vec...

This chapter discusses returns to scale (RTS) in data envelopment analysis (DEA). The BCC and CCR models are treated in input oriented forms while the multiplicative model is treated in output oriented form. (This distinction is not pertinent for the additive model which simultaneously maximizes outputs and minimizes inputs in the sense of a vector optimization.) Quantitative estimates in the f...

In this study, the financial performance of 10 logistics companies operating in storage, transport and services sector Turkey is evaluated for years from 2011 to 2017 by using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) method. accordance with purpose input variables are selected as total assets, equity number employees whereas output net sales, profit before interest tax amount exports. measuring performa...

The current paper presents the results of a study that analyzed and evaluated efficiency largest container ports in wider area Mediterranean Basin. research question this seeks to respond is how resources (inputs) port reflect its level activity efficiency. In particular, what relationship between ports’ infrastructures, equipment their productivity ability attract economic activities as well e...
