.... Design/methodology/approach The non-oriented slack-based measures (SBM)-data envelopment analysis (DEA) model considering desirable and undesirable outputs has been embraced in this study, where its obtained results were compared with the results of other DEA models are output-oriented SBM-DEA...

... of this study is to evaluate the operational efficiency of seven Indian oil refineries during the period 2010 to 2018. Design/methodology/approach In this work, a two-stage empirical analysis is proposed. In the first stage, the data envelopment analysis (DEA) – variable return to scale model is used...

... and assessing the eco-efficiency determining factor in Iran’s 22 local cement companies over 2015–2019. Design/methodology/approach This research uses two well-known artificial intelligence approaches, namely, optimization data envelopment analysis (DEA) and machine learning algorithms at the first...

... development is often chosen as a research approach under the method of data envelopment analysis (DEA). Among a large amount of sustainability performance assessment, the global Malmquist-Luenberger (GML) productivity index is one of the most frequently used methods. Previous studies in this field with GML...

... over others. This is done by assessing inter-group meta-efficiency, technology gap ratios (TGR) and frontier differences of OPCs using a bootstrap-based data envelopment analysis (DEA) (Charnes et al., 1978) based on metafrontier analysis (Battese et al., 2004 ; O’Donnell et al...

...Yao-yao Song; Hui-hui Liu; Xiao-xiao Liu; Guo-liang Yang Purpose This paper aims to measure Chinese regional thermal industries’ evolution. Design/methodology/approach This paper uses data envelopment analysis (DEA) and global Malmquist–Luenberger productivity (GMLP) index. Findings...

...‐parametric approach of data envelopment analysis (DEA) and uses the Malmquist index to estimate the change in productivity of panel samples. In the calculations, the study considers installed capacity, fuel, labour, electricity used, and average operational time as inputs and considers net electricity...

... of this paper is to examine the veracity of this argument by analysing both the technical and environmental performance of the Thai electricity industry. Design/methodology/approach A data envelopment analysis‐based methodology is employed in this study to measure the productivity of the Thai electricity...

...Olli‐Pekka Hilmola Purpose Oil exporters have been identified as having problems in the friendliness and performance of their logistics sector, particularly in general cargo group. The purpose of this research is to identify, through proposed data envelopment analysis (DEA) models, those oil...
