چکیده مقاله :
Classic Data Envelopment Analysis assumes that the values of inputs and outputs are exactly determined. However, in most real-life problems, the exact values of some of the inputs and outputs are imprecise. One of such imprecise data is ordinal data. In this paper, a new model is presented for measuring the efficiency evaluation of decision making units with ordinal data. The general idea of this model is assigning real values to ordinal data with new approach. Furthermore, another new model for ranking efficient units is presented with the main idea of changes in controlled efficiency. Then, the results of proposed model are compared with Cooper model. Therefore, the efficiency scores obtained from proposed model are more realistic and reasonable than the results obtained from the Cooper's model.
تحلیل پوششی داده های کلاسیک مقادیر ورودی ها و خروجی ها را کاملا مشخص فرض میکند. در حالیکه در اغلب مسایل واقعی مقادیر دقیق ورودی ها و خروجی ها مبهم هستند. یکی از داده های مبهم داده های ترتیبی هستند. در این مقاله مدل جدیدی برای اندازه گیری کارآیی واحدهای تصمیم گیری با داده های ترتیبی ارائه میشود. ایده کلی این مدل آن است که تغییرات کارایی واحدها در ارزیابی باید به اندازه قابل کنترل مجاز باشد. بعلاوه مدل جدیدی برای رتبه بندی واحدهای کارآ بیان می شود. نتایج مدل پیشنهادی با مدل کوپر مقایسه میشود. بنابراین نمرات کارآیی حاصل از مدل پیشنهادی قابل اعتمادتر از نتایج حاصل از مدل کوپر هستند.
