Abstract: | The efficiency measures provided by DEA can be used for ranking Decision Making Units (DMUs), however, this ranking procedure does not yield relative rankings for those units with 100% efficiency. Andersen and Petersen have proposed a modified efficiency measure for efficient units which can be used for ranking, but this ranking breaks down in some cases, and can be unstable when one of the DMUs has a relatively small value for some of its inputs. This paper proposes an alternative efficiency measure, based on a different optimization problem that removes the difficulties. |
