An Interactive MOLP Procedure for the Extension of DEA to Effectiveness Analysis
提出一种交互式多目标线性规划方法，利用数据包络分析生成的经验生产函数，帮助决策者设定产出目标并评估不同投入组合的有效性。
This paper presents a new, interactive multi-objective linear-programming procedure to aid decision-makers in setting up goals for desired outputs. The procedure relies on empirical production functions generated by the use of data envelopment analysis. It presents the decision-maker with a set of alternative efficient points in order either to compare different sets of inputs in terms of their effectiveness for goal achievement, or to set goals against which future management performance may be measured. With each iteration the new information provided by the decision-maker is used to adjust the procedure, leading to points which have greater effectiveness utility for the decision-maker. A numerical example is provided along with guidelines for future applications.
