In the data envelopment analysis (DEA) literature, linear fractional non-cooperative network DEA models for two-stage network structures are often transformed into parametric linear models. The transformed parametric linear models are then solved by computing a series of linear models when the parameter is varied. For example, Wu, Zhu, Ji, Chu and Liang (2016) provide a linear fractional non-co...

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a non-parametric approach for measuring the efficiency of decision making units (DMUs) that use multiple inputs in order to produce multiple outputs. In most real applications, DMUs have a two-stage network process which can be used for management of organizations such as hospitals, insurance companies, banks, and etc. The data are crisp in the standard DEA mo...

This paper employs a cross-sectional research design to collect quantitative data for group of Greek pharmaceutical companies in order evaluate their credit risk. The are processed using variety approaches, including series two-stage envelopment analysis (DEA) combined with bootstrap and hierarchical clustering. results the DEA bootstrapped indicate that key problem firms’ performance is lack e...

supplier selection is a multi-criteria problem. this study proposes a hybrid model for supporting the suppliers’ selection and ranking. this research is a two-stage model designed to fully rank the suppliers where each supplier has multiple inputs and outputs. first, the supplier evaluation problem is formulated by data envelopment analysis (dea), since the regarded decision deals with uncertai...
