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...

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) measures relative efficiency among the decision making units (DMU) without considering noise in data. The least efficient DMU indicates that it is in the worst situation. In this paper, we measure efficiency of individual DMU whenever it losses the maximum output, and the efficiency of other DMUs is measured in the observed situation. This efficiency is the minim...

This article developed an approached model of congestion, based on relaxed combination of inputs, in stochastic data envelopment analysis (SDEA) with chance constrained programming approaches. Classic data envelopment analysis models with deterministic data have been used by many authors to identify congestion and estimate its levels; however, data envelopment analysis with stochastic data were...

Data Envelopment Analysis is a technique based on linear programming methods to construct surface or non parametric boundary over the data. This boundary is used to evaluate proportional efficiency. In this paper, a mixed model was proposed based on Stochastic Data Envelopment Analysis (SDEA) and Principal Component Analysis (PCA) for predicting the similar units' efficiencies in an organizatio...

The stochastic data envelopment analysis (SDEA) was developed considering the value ofinputs and outputs as random variables. Therefore, statistical distributions play an importantrole in this regard. The skew-normal (SN) distribution is a family of probability densityfunctions that is frequently used in practical situations. In this paper, we assume that the inputand output variables are skew-...

background: assessment of hospitals’ performance in achieving its goals is a basic necessity. measuring the efficiency of hospitals in order to boost resource productivity in healthcare organizations is extremely important. the aim of this study was to measure technical efficiency and determining status of resource allocation in some university hospitals, in tehran, iran.   methods : this study...

performance evaluation of electricity distribution units is an important issue between researchers and regulators. classic data envelopment analysis models with deterministic data have been used by many authors to measure efficiency of power distribution units in different countries. however, data envelopment analysis with stochastic data are rarely used to measure efficiency of distribution co...

The inverse Data Envelopment Analysis (InvDEA) is an exciting and significant topic in the DEA area. Also, uncertain data various real-life applications can degrade efficiency results. current work addresses InvDEA presence of stochastic data. Under maintaining score, inputs/outputs-estimation problem investigated when some or all its outputs/inputs increase. A novel optimality concept for mult...
