this paper presents a deterministic approach for performance assessment of different province’s road safety level at iran. a data envelopment analysis (dea) model considering undesirable input and output indices and a multivariate statistical method, principle component analysis (pca) are used in this paper, while previous studies do not use composite pca-dea method and undesirable input and ou...

performance evaluation of universities is an important issue between researchers. classic data envelopment analysis (dea) models with deterministic data have been used by many authors to measure efficiency of universities in different countries. however, dea with stochastic data are, rarely used to measure efficiency of universities. in this paper, input oriented model in stochastic data envelo...

‎the purpose of this paper is to offer the equitable method for ranking decision making units(dmus) based on the dynamic data envelopment analysis (ddea) concept, where quasi-fixed inputs or intermediate products are the source of inter-temporal dependence between consecutive periods. in fact, this paper originally makes the use of an approach extending the ranking of dmus in dea by khodabakhsh...

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a nonparametric approach to estimate relative efficiency of decision making units (dmus). dea and is one of the best quantitative approach and balanced scorecard (bsc) is one of the best qualitative method to measure efficiency of an organization. since simultaneous evaluation of network performance of the quad areas of bsc model is considered as a necessity a...

Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is a widely used technique for measuring the relative efficiencies of homogenous Decision Making Units (DMUs) with multiple inputs and multiple outputs. These factors may be evaluated in fuzzy or stochastic environment. Hence, the classic structures of DEA model may be changed where in two fold fuzzy stochastic environment. For instances, linearity, feasibility a...

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a mathematical programming-based approach for evaluates the relative efficiency of a set of dmus (decision making units). the relative efficiency of a dmu is the result of comparing the inputs and outputs of the dmu and those of other dmus in the pps (production possibility set). also, in data envelopment analysis various models have been developed in order to...

In original Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) models for measuring the relative efficiencies of a set of Decision Making Units (DMUs) using various inputs to produce various outputs are limited to crisp data. To deal with imprecise data, the notion of fuzziness has been introduced. this paper develops a procedure to measure the efficiencies of DMUs with fuzzy observations. The basic idea is to tr...

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a common technique in measuring the relative efficiency of a set of decision making units (DMUs) with multiple inputs and multiple outputs. ‎‎Standard DEA models are ‎‎quite limited models‎, ‎in the sense that they do not consider a DMU ‎‎at different times‎. ‎To resolve this problem‎, ‎DEA models with dynamic ‎‎structures have been proposed‎.‎In a recent pape...

This article compares two techniques: Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) and Factor Analysis (FA) to aggregate multiple inputs and outputs in the evaluation of decision making units (DMU). Dِata envelopment analysis (DEA), a popular linear programming technique, is useful to rate comparatively operational efficiency of DMUs based on their deterministic or stochastic input–output data. Factor analys...

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a method to evaluate the relative efficiency of decision making units (dmus). in this method, the issue has always been to determine a set of weights for each dmu which often caused many problems. since the dea models also have the multi-objective linear programming (molp) problems nature, a rational relationship can be established between molp and dea problem...
