Abstract :
DEA-based clustering approach reveals the input–output relationships hidden in the data items of input and output. DEA-based clustering approach employs the piece-wise production functions derived from the DEA method to cluster the car companies. Estimate production function for each car company by input-output data is the benefit of this method. Thus, each car company (like Saipa) not only knows the cluster that it belongs to, but also checks the production function type that it confronts. It is important for managerial decision-making in different fields where decision-makers are interested in knowing the changes required in combining input resources.
