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 paper concerns inverse DEA. The aim is to estimate input/output levels of a given Decision Making Unit (DMU) when some or all of its input/output levels are changed, under preserving the efficiency index. We show that in the case of estimating increased required input vector when the output...
