Using Enhanced Russell Model to Solve Inverse Data Envelopment Analysis Problems

الملخص EN

This paper studies the inverse data envelopment analysis using the nonradial enhanced Russell model.

Necessary and sufficient conditions for inputs/outputs determination are introduced based on Pareto solutions of multiple-objective linear programming.

In addition, an approach is investigated to identify extra input/lack output in each of input/output components (maximum/minimum reduction/increase amounts in each a of input/output components).

In addition, the following question is addressed: if among a group of DMUs, it is required to increase inputs and outputs to a particular unit and assume that the DMU maintains its current efficiency level with respect to other DMUs, how much should the inputs and outputs of the DMU increase? This question is discussed as inverse data envelopment analysis problems, and a technique is suggested to answer this question.

Necessary and sufficient conditions are established by employing Pareto solutions of multiple-objective linear programming as well.
