Abstract DEA (data envelopment analysis) models can be divided into two groups: Radial DEA and non-radial DEA, and the latter has higher discriminatory power than the former. The range adjusted measure (RAM) is an effective and widely used non-radial DEA approach. However, to the best of our knowledge, there is no literature on the integer-valued super-efficiency RAM-DEA model, especially when undesirable outputs are included. We first propose an integer-valued RAM-DEA model with undesirable outputs and then extend this model to an integer-valued super-efficiency RAM-DEA model with undesirable outputs. Compared with other DEA models, the two novel models have many advantages: 1) They are non-oriented and non-radial DEA models, which enable decision makers to simultaneously and non-proportionally improve inputs and outputs; 2) They can handle integer-valued variables and undesirable outputs, so the results obtained are more reliable; 3) The results can be easily obtained as it is based on linear programming; 4) The integer-valued super-efficiency RAM-DEA model with undesirable outputs can be used to accurately rank efficient DMUs. The proposed models are applied to evaluate the efficiency of China’s regional transportation systems (RTSs) considering the number of transport accidents (an undesirable output). The results help decision makers improve the performance of inefficient RTSs and analyze the strengths of efficient RTSs.

The Impact

Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is a non-parametric approach based on linear programming for evaluating the performance of decision making units (DMUs) with multiple inputs and multiple outputs. The lack of the ability to generate the actual weights, not considering the impact of undesirable outputs in the evaluation process and the measuring of efficiencies of DMUs based upon precise observations are three main drawbacks of the conventional DEA models. This paper proposes a novel approach for finding the common set of weights (CSW) to compute efficiencies in DEA model with undesirable outputs when the data are represented by fuzzy numbers. The proposed approach is based on fuzzy arithmetic which formulates the fuzzy additive DEA model as a linear programing problem and gives fuzzy efficiencies of all DMUs based on resulting CSW. We demonstrate the applicability of the proposed model with a simple numerical example. Finally, in the context of performance management, an application of banking industry in Iran is presented for analyzing the influence of fuzzy data and depicting the impact of undesirable outputs over the efficiency results.

This paper develops a range directional distance data envelopment analysis (DEA) model to simultaneously deal with the problems of negative data and undesirable outputs in the study of performance measurement with two-stage DEA. We report on the development of this model to handle both positive and negative data in a DEA framework and accommodate the problem of undesirable intermediate outputs in the first stage of operational processes. Unlike previous two-stage DEA models we allow for a nonuniform abatement factor imposing on stage 1’ production technology. Such a model is then applied to evaluate Taiwanese bank efficiencies both at the operational stage and profitability stage in banking activities based on a data set consisting of 35 domestic banks in Taiwan in the period 2007. The results indicate that, by the range directional two-stage data envelopment analysis model, the operational efficiency was smaller than the profitability efficiency. Many banks generated too many performing loans in which independent banks should reduce more performing loans than financial holding company subsidiary banks. Both the ratio of investments to loans and the ratio of nonperforming loans to performing loans did not have significant contributions to the efficiency. This paper is able to provide information for bank operators and researchers on the managerial and strategic implications of how negative data and undesirable outputs affect efficiency and how to measure efficiency appropriately.
