Benchmarking with uncertain data: a simulation study comparing alternative methods

Hougaard, Jens Leth; Kerstens, Pieter Jan; Nielsen, Kurt - 2019

We consider efficiency measurement methods in the presence of uncertain input and output data, and without the (empirically problematic) assumption of convexity of the production technology. In particular, we perform a simulation study in order to contrast two well-established methods, IDEA and...

TOTEX Malmquist index for RPI-X regulation : does it correctly estimate the true frontier shift?

Meyer, Roland; Brunekreeft, Gert; Elias, George - 2019

The factor X in the RPI-X regulation aims to adjust price or revenue allowances to changes in total factor productivity and input prices. A cost Malmquist index can be applied to determine the efficient cost change (ECC). However, regulators typically do not have the necessary data on input...

Shapley value-based multi-objective data envelopment analysis application for assessing academic efficiency of university departments

Abing, Stephen Lloyd N.; Barton, Mercie Grace L.; … - In: Journal of Industrial Engineering International 14 (2018) 4, pp. 733-746

This paper adopts a modified approach of data envelopment analysis (DEA) to measure the academic efficiency of … decision variables. To overcome this limitation and reduce the number of decision variables, multi-objective data envelopment … analysis (MODEA) approach previously presented in the literature is applied. The MODEA approach applies Shapley value as a …

How to measure research efficiency in higher education? : research grants vs. publication output

Gralka, Sabine; Wohlrabe, Klaus; Bornmann, Lutz - 2018

An ongoing debate in the literature on efficiency of higher education institutions concerns the indicator for research output in the empirical analysis. While several studies chose to use the number of publications, others rely on the overall amount of research grants. The present study...
