DEA (Data Envelopment Analysis) 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). If the inputs and outputs each vary in intervals, the DMUs cannot be easily evaluated and ranked using the obtained efficiency scores. In this paper, presenting a new idea for computing the efficiency of DMUs with
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
