摘要: Abstract In this paper, we study the structural properties of DEA efficient surfaces production possibility set under Generalized Data Envelopment Analysis (GDEA) model introduced by Yu, Wei and Brockett (1996). The GDEA contains following well-known (DEA) models as its special cases: CCR Charnes, Cooper, Rhodes (1978); BCC Banker, Charnes Cooper (1984); FG Fare Grosskopf (1985); ST Seiford Thrall (1990). relationships among Decision Making Units (DMUs) can be found solving with predilection cone description. Using these relations to identify relative positions DMUs on surface, devise an algorithm for constructing all surfaces. Through further analysis, show DEA-efficient several important subclasses models. Analytical expressions are obtained, which useful in analyzing structure efficiencies strategic group classifications. Results from paper suggest applications Pareto solutions (or nondominated solutions) multiobjective programming.
