data envelopment analysis (dea) is a nonparametric technique that includes models to evaluate the relative efficiency of decision making units (dmus). it has the ability to separate efficient units and inefficient units. one of the applications of this mathematical technique is evaluating performance of supply chain. according to such as the inefficiency factors of one dmu, is existence congest...

this paper proposes a new approach for determining efficient dmus in dea models using inverse optimi-zation and without solving any lps. it is shown that how a two-phase algorithm can be applied to detect effi-cient dmus. it is important to compare computational performance of solving the simultaneous linear equa-tions with that of the lp, when computational issues and complexity analysis are a...

Traditional DEA models do not deal with imprecise data and assume that the data for all inputs and outputs are known exactly. Inverse DEA models can be used to estimate inputs for a DMU when some or all outputs and efficiency level of this DMU are increased or preserved. this paper studies the inverse DEA for fuzzy data. This paper proposes generalized inverse DEA in fuzzy data envelopment anal...

in this paper, we show that inverse data envelopment analysis (dea) models can be used to estimate output with fuzzy data for a decision making unit (dmu) when some or all inputs are increased and deficiency level of the unit remains unchanged.

Despite the large uses of inverse DEA models, there is not any single application of inverse linear programming in DEA when the definition of inverse linear programming is taken under account. Thus the goal of this paper is applying the inverse linear programming into DEA field, and to provide a streamlined approach to DEA and Additive model. Having the entire efficient DMUs in DEA models is a...

This article combines two techniques: data envelopment analysis (DEA) and Factor analysis (FA) to data reduction in decision making units (DMU). Data envelopment analysis (DEA), a popular linear programming technique is useful to rate comparatively operational efficiency of decision making units (DMU) based on their deterministic (not necessarily stochastic) input–output data and factor analysi...

for efficiency evaluation of some of the decision making units that have uncertain information, rough data envelopment analysis technique is used, which is derived from rough set theorem and data envelopment analysis (dea). in some situations rough data alter nonradially. to this end, this paper proposes additive rough–dea model and illustrates the proposed model by a numerical example.

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 ...

inthis article we offer a method of ranking contractors by using dea based onanalysis deficit and ahp. the process of hierarchical analysis (ahp) byproviding scales from paired comparison matrix, performs the contractor’sprioritizing choice. but ahp has some problems and to solve those problems,jahanshahloo and his colleagues presented a new model which uses dea andstandard deviation. in this a...

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a method for measuring the efficiency of peer decision making units (DMUs). Recently network DEA models been developed to examine the efficiency of DMUs with internal structures. The internal network structures range from a simple two-stage process to a complex system where multiple divisions are linked together with intermediate measures. In general, there ar...
