Directional Slack-Based Measure for the Inverse Data Envelopment Analysis

الملخص EN

A novel technique has been introduced in this research which lends its basis to the Directional Slack-Based Measure for the inverse Data Envelopment Analysis.

In practice, the current research endeavors to elucidate the inverse directional slack-based measure model within a new production possibility set.

On one occasion, there is a modification imposed on the output (input) quantities of an efficient decision making unit.

In detail, the efficient decision making unit in this method was omitted from the present production possibility set but substituted by the considered efficient decision making unit while its input and output quantities were subsequently modified.

The efficiency score of the entire DMUs will be retained in this approach.

Also, there would be an improvement in the efficiency score.

The proposed approach was investigated in this study with reference to a resource allocation problem.

It is possible to simultaneously consider any upsurges (declines) of certain outputs associated with the efficient decision making unit.

The significance of the represented model is accentuated by presenting numerical examples.
