data envelopment analysis (dea) models with interval inputs and outputs have been rarely discussed in dea literature. this paper, using the enhanced russell measurement proposes an extended model which permits the presence of interval scale variables which can take both negative and positive values. the model is compared with most well-known dea models of which include the ccr model, the bcc mo...

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a non-parametric technique for evaluation of relative efficiency of decision making units described by multiple inputs and outputs. it is based on solving linear programming problems. since 1978 when basic dea model was introduced many its modifications were formulated. among them are two or multi-stage models with serial or parallel structure often called net...

recently the concept of facility efficiency, which defined by data envelopment analysis (dea), introduced as a location modeling objective, that provides facilities location’s effect on their performance in serving demands. by combining the dea models with the location problem, two types of “efficiencies” are optimized: spatial efficiency which measured by finding the least cost location and al...

The basic assumption in data envelopment analysis patterns (DEA) (such as the CCR andBCC models) is that the value of data related to the inputs and outputs is a precise andpositive number, but most of the time in real conditions of business, determining precisenumerical value is not possible in for some inputs or outputs. For this purpose, differentmodels have been proposed in DEA for imprecis...

data envelopment analysis (dea) is a widely recognized approach for evaluating the efficiencies of decision making units (dmus). because of easy and successful application and case studies, dea has gained much attention and widespread use by business and academy researchers. the conventional dea models (e.g. bcc and ccr) make an assumption that input and output data are exact values on a ratio ...

This study utilizes the Data Envelopment Efficiency (DEA) model to assess input–output efficiency from two perspectives. First, not considering the distribution of interval data, we introduce an adjusted parameter to transform interval data to determination data. Second, by contrast, we take into account the distribution characteristics of interval data and test the DEA model with interval data...

The conventional data envelopment analysis (DEA) measures the relative efficiencies of a set of decision making units (DMUs) with exact value of inputs and outputs. For imprecise data, i.e., mixtures of interval data and ordinal data, some methods have been developed to calculate the interval of the efficiency scores. This paper constructs a procedure to measure the efficiencies of DMUs with mi...
