Lg. Gong et B. Sun, EFFICIENCY MEASUREMENT OF PRODUCTION OPERATIONS UNDER UNCERTAINTY, International journal of production economics, 39(1-2), 1995, pp. 55-66
This paper focuses on the non-parametric efficiency measurement of pro
duction operations under uncertainties. The authors extend the existin
g data envelopment analysis method to deal with inputs and outputs sub
ject to random disturbances. They propose a new approach to performanc
e evaluation using certainty equivalence of utility functions, which c
an accommodate decision maker's risk attitude. They also formulate app
ropriate models to implement these approaches.
