In the framework of data envelopment analysis (DEA), Tone (2001) introduced the slacks-based measure (SBM) of efficiency, which is a nonradial model that incorporates all the slacks of the evaluated decision-making units (DMUs) into their…
Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is a multi-criteria technique based on linear programming to deal with many real-life problems, mostly in nonprofit organizations. The slacks-based measure (SBM) model is one of the DEA model used to assess…
In this paper we propose robust efficiency scores for the scenario in which the specification of the inputs/outputs to be included in the DEA model is modelled with a probability distribution. This proba- bilistic approach allows us to…
We propose an approach for dynamic efficiency evaluation across multiple organizational dimensions using data envelopment analysis (DEA). The method generates both dimension-specific and aggregate efficiency scores, incorporates desirable…
Incorporating an assurance region (AR) into the slacks-based measure (SBM) improves practicality; however, its efficiency measure may not have desirable properties, such as monotonicity. We incorporate a closer target setting approach into…
Assessing the technical efficiency of a set of observations requires that the associated data composed of inputs and outputs are perfectly known. If this is not the case, then biased estimates will likely be obtained. Data Envelopment…
Natural language models are often summarized through a high-dimensional set of descriptive metrics including training corpus size, training time, the number of trainable parameters, inference times, and evaluation statistics that assess…
The aim of this paper is to present a novel approach for ranking of all DMUs using the interval Cross-Efficiency (ICE) and interval Analytic Hierarchy Process (IAHP) methods. The approach includes two basic stages. In the first stage using…
The banking industry is very important for an economic cycle of each country and provides some quality of services for us. With the advancement in technology and rapidly increasing of the complexity of the business environment, it has…
We systematically study cornerstones that must be solved to define an air traffic control benchmarking system based on a Data Envelopment Analysis. Primarily, we examine the appropriate decision-making units, what to consider and what to…
Data envelopment analysis (DEA) theory formulates a number of desirable properties that DEA models should satisfy. Among these, indication, strict monotonicity, and strong efficiency of projections tend to be grouped together in the sense…
In a context of global economy, addressing SMEs performance within a local framework appears rather a naive approach. The key drawback of such an approach stems from its restriction to socio-economic factors that might lead to biased…
This paper introduces a new specification for the nonparametric production-frontier based on Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) when dealing with decision-making units whose economic performances are correlated with those of the neighbors…
This article presents a Benchmarking methodology to support decision-making for international market selection (IMS). In order to do so, we will be using an output-oriented Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) model. This methodology considers…
Evaluating the efficiency of organizations and branches within an organization is a challenging issue for managers. Evaluation criteria allow organizations to rank their internal units, identify their position concerning their competitors,…
Applications of data envelopment analysis (DEA) show that many inefficient units are projected onto the weakly efficient parts of the frontier when efficiency scores are computed. However this fact disagrees with the main concept of the DEA…
Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces have been recently investigated for their potentials to offer significant performance improvements in the next generation wireless telecommunication systems (5G and beyond / 6G). Intelligent surfaces are…
Several methods have been proposed to identify which sensor sets are optimal for finding and localizing faults under different conditions for mechanical equipment. In order to preserve acceptable performance while minimizing costs, it is…
Understanding sustainability through modeling involves one of the complex and interdisciplinary activities where mathematics plays a key role. We provide arguments favoring the need for developing global models for measuring the status of…
Decision-making units (DMUs) in a group convert the same resources (i.e., input indices) into the same products (i.e., output indices) at different scales. Performance indices have different measurement units, and their market prices per…
