Technical Efficiency Measures on DEA and FDH: A Reconsideration of the Axiomatic Literature

摘要: The aim of this paper is to evaluate both radial and nonradial measures technical efficiency based on two popular non-parametric reference technologies, known as Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) the Free Disposal Hull (FDH). In addition traditional measurement, a series alternative proposed in theoretical literature are presented discussed. particular, axioms satisfied by these summarized some properties illustrated using numerical examples. Another property guaranteeing insensitivity measure ,to number dimensions analysis. latter especially important applied work. Furthermore, additional arguments e.g., cost interpretation examined.
