This paper provides computationally efficient approaches for determining to which returns to scale (RTS) class a unit belongs in weight-restricted Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) models. A non-traditional computational algorithm is introduced. The suggested approach is based on the calculation...

This technical note extends the results of our recent paper [Korhonen, Soleimani-damaneh, Wallenius, EJOR 215 (2011) 431–438], for determining the RTS status of Decision Making Units in Weight-Restricted DEA models.
