In cost allocation problem, traditional DEA approaches allocate the fixed cost among a group of decision making units (DMUs), and treat the allocated cost as an extra input of each DMU. If costs except for the fixed cost are regarded as inputs in the cost allocation problem, then it is obvious...

Traditional methods of applying classification models into the area of credit scoring may ignore the effect from censoring. Survival analysis has been introduced with its ability to deal with censored data. The mixture cure model, one important branch of survival models, is also applied in the...

In this paper, a unified algorithm is proposed for solving a class of convex separable nonlinear knapsack problems, which are characterized by positive marginal cost (PMC) and increasing marginal loss-cost ratio (IMLCR). By taking advantage of these two characteristics, the proposed algorithm is...

Multiple attribute pricing problems are highly challenging due to the dynamic and uncertain features in the associated market. In this paper, we address the condominium multiple attribute pricing problem using data envelopment analysis (DEA). In this study, we simultaneously consider stochastic...
