The study is based on a non-parametric efficiency analysis tool, namely Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). Conventional DEA models assume non-negative data for inputs and outputs. However, many of these data take the negative value, therefore we propose the MeanSharp-βRisk (MShβR) model and the Multi-Objective MeanSharp-βRisk (MOMShβR) model base on Range Directional Measure (RDM) that can take positive and negative values. We utilize different risk measures in these models consist of variance, semivariance, Value at Risk (VaR) and Conditional Value at Risk (CVaR) to find the best one as input. After using our proposed models, the efficient stock companies will be selected for making the portfolio. Then, by using Multi-Objective Decision Making (MODM) model we specified the capital allocation to the stock companies that selected for the portfolio. Finally, a numerical example of the Iranian stock companies is presented to demonstrate the usefulness and effectiveness of our models, and compare different risk measures together in our models and allocate assets.

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is one of the popular and applicable techniques that can be used to reach this goal. However, there are always concerns about negative data and uncertainty in financial markets. Since the classical DEA models cannot deal with negative and imprecise values, in this paper, possibilistic range directional measure (PRDM) model is proposed to measure the efficiencies of stocks in the presence of negative data and uncertainty with input/output parameters. Using the data from insurance industry, this model is also implemented for a real case study of Tehran stock exchange (TSE) in order to analyse the performance of the proposed method.

3 - Predicting financial statement fraud using fuzzy neural networks
Mohsen Rostamy-Malkhalifeh Maryam Amiri Mehrdad MehrkamFraud is a common phenomenon in business, and according to Section 24 of the Iranian Auditing Standards, it is the fraudulent act of one or more managers, employees, or third parties to derive unfair advantage and any intentional or unlawful conduct. Financial statement MoreFraud is a common phenomenon in business, and according to Section 24 of the Iranian Auditing Standards, it is the fraudulent act of one or more managers, employees, or third parties to derive unfair advantage and any intentional or unlawful conduct. Financial statements are a means of transmitting confidential management information about the financial position of a company to shareholders and other stakeholders. In this paper, by reviewing the literature, 6 indicators of current ratio, debt ratio, inventory turnover ratio, sales growth index, total asset turnover ratio, and capital return ratio as input and detection of financial fraud as output are considered for the fuzzy neural network. The database was compiled for 10 companies in the period from 2010 to 2018 after clearing and normalizing qualitatively between 1 to 5 discrete numbers with very low or very high meanings, respectively. The fuzzy neural network model with 161 nodes, 448 linear parameters, 36 nonlinear parameters, and 64 fuzzy laws with two methods of accuracy approximation of mean squared error and root mean squared error has been set to zero and 0.0000001 respectively. This neural network can be used for prediction. Manuscript profile -

4 - A New Method for Allocating Fixed Costs with Undesirable Data: Data Envelopment Analysis Approach

Lack of attention to undesirable data may lead to incorrect cost allocation. Considering and determining undesirable inputs and outputs, data envelopment analysis (DEA) technique can be significantly helpful in determining the cost allocation strategy. In-puts and outputs are divided into two desirable and undesirable groups. Obviously, desirable inputs and undesirable outputs must be reduced and undesirable inputs and desirable outputs must be increased to improve performance. This manuscript presents two strategies for allocating fixed costs with undesirable data. In the first strategy, each decision making unit (DMU) first determines the minimum and maximum shares that it can receive from the fixed resources while the efficiency of that DMU and other DMUs re-mains the same after receiving the fixed resources. Finally, the decision maker chooses the fixed cost for each DMU between the minimum and maxi-mum cost values proposed. In the second strategy, the allocation of fixed costs is done using the CCR multiplicative model with undesirable data. The effectiveness of both methods is examined by an applied study on the commercial banks. Manuscript profile -

5 - The sustainability radius of the cost efficiency in Interval Data Envelopment Analysis: A case study from Tehran Stocks
Esmaeil Mombini Mohsen Rostamy-Malkhalifeh Mansour SarajInterval Data Envelopment Analysis (Interval DEA) is a methodology to assess the efficiency of decision-making units (DMUs) in the presence of interval data.

Sensitivity analysis and sustainability evaluation of decision- making units are as the most important concerns of Decision Makers (DM). In the past decades, many scholars have been attracted to the sustainability evaluation of DMUs from different perspectives. This study focuses on the sensitivity analysis in DEA and proposes an approach to determine the sustainability radius of the cost efficiency of units with interval data. Potential application of our proposed methods is illustrated by a numerical example from the literature review. Manuscript profile -

The main purpose of this study is to examine the efficiency of merger and acquisition before doing this process in the insurance industry using network data envelopment analysis and can select the companies that potentially facilitate achieving the purposes of the merger and acquisition process and improve of this action. For this purpose, in this study, first the efficiency of 20 insurance companies was measured through the Modified Slack-Based Measure (MSBM) in the two-stage data envelopment analysis approach during three years 2017, 2018 and 2019. Then, considering the calculated efficiency, Asia Insurance Company, Parsian, Dey, Pasargad, Kowsar and Taavon, which have had efficient performance in the last three years, were excluded from the calculations and other companies were selected for M&A . After ensuring that no monopoly is considered via Herfindahl- Hirschman Index, M&A is performed and then the overall efficiency was measured and it was divided into three parts: technical, harmony and scale. The results showed that the two consolidations Dana-Mihan and Dana-Sina had the best efficiency and the three consolidations Alborz-Mellat, Sina-Arman and Sina-Sarmad had the lowest efficiency and potential for the highest improvement. Calculations also showed that if the scale effect in the composition is greater than 1, then the coordination effect is smaller than 1 and the inverse relationship are not necessarily satisfied.

The authors developed DEA models to evaluate the efficiency of two-stage networks in returns to scale variable and introduced a new definition to determine return to scale classification in two-stage networks. The current article proposed an approach for determining the stability region of returns to scale classification in two-stage network DEA. The data were collected from insurance companies in Iran in 2019. We consider the insurance industry process as a two-stage network; the stage of marketing and that of investment. The effectiveness of insurance companies was evaluated, and, after determining the classification of returns to scale, we found a sustainability interval to classify returns to their scale.

When the number of DMUs are immense, due to an increase in complications, the skewed or outdated, calculating methods to compute efficiency, ranking and …. may not prove to be economical. The key objective of the proposed algorithm is to segregate the efficient units from that of the other units. In order to gain access to this objective, effectual indexes were created; and taken to assist, in regards the DEA concepts and the type of business (under study), to survey the indexes, which were relatively operative. Subsequently, with the help of one of the clustering techniques and the ‘concept of dominance’, the efficient units were absolved from the inefficient ones and a DEA model was developed from an aggregate of the efficient units. By eliminating the inefficient units, the number of units which played a role in the construction of a DEA model, diminished. As a result, the speed of the computational process of the scores related to the efficient units increased. The algorithm designed to measure the various branches of one of the mercantile banks of Iran with financial indexes was implemented; resulting in the fact that, the algorithm has the capacity of gaining expansion towards big data.
