as regards of supper efficiency models which increased thediscrimination power of the standard dea models, still infeasibility mayoccure. in literature there exists some models overcome this difficulty.in this paper a new procedure has been mooted in order to remove thisshortcoming in a way that both input savings and output surplus arebeing considered. this procedure deals with nonradial chang...

performance evaluation has been developed in the form of management schools along by managerial thought development. banks and financial institutes are one of the most important economic sections to each country which by receipts and payments directing and organizing facilitate business and commercial transactions and develop markets and economic growth and as the main pillars in directing and ...

Performance assessment is a central to the management process in any type of organization. In addition, making rational economical decisions improve organizational performance daunting task, as organization typically multi-faceted entity which rely on complex systems that use uncertain information. Data envelopment analysis (DEA) powerful quantitative tool makes multiple inputs and outputs obta...

the present study is an attempt toward evaluating the performance of portfolios using mean-variance-skewness model with negative data. mean-variance non-linear framework and mean-variance-skewness non- linear framework had been proposed based on data envelopment analysis, which the variance of the assets had been used as an input to the dea and expected return and skewness were the output. conv...

recently, farzipoor saen [journal of the operational research society, 60(11), 1575–1582 (2009)] proposed a method based on data envelopment analysis to identify optimistic efficient suppliers in the presence of nondiscretionary factors-imprecise data. this short communication aims at showing a computational error in computing the value of preference intensity parameter in farzipoor saen’s [1] ...

one of the new topics in dea is the data with integer values. in dea classic models, it is assumed that input and output variables have real values. however, in many cases, some inputs or outputs can have integer values. measuring cost efficiency is another method to evaluate the performance and assess the capabilities of a single decision-making unit for manufacturing current products at a min...
