Cross-efficiency evaluation is an effective method for ranking decision-making units (DMUs) in data envelopment analysis (DEA) and can be performed with different formulations (aggressive or benevolent), secondary goals, and models. This paper proposes some new alternative models for DEA...

Cross-efficiency evaluation is an effective way of ranking decision making units (DMUs) in data envelopment analysis (DEA). Existing approaches for cross-efficiency evaluation are mainly focused on the calculation of cross-efficiency matrix, but pay little attention to the aggregation of the...

The DEAHP method for weight deviation and aggregation in the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) has been found flawed and sometimes produces counterintuitive priority vectors for inconsistent pairwise comparison matrices, which makes its application very restrictive. This paper proposes a new data...
