Abstract

Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a widely used mathematical programming technique for measuring the relative e±ciency of decision-making units which consume multiple inputs to produce multiple outputs. Although precise input and output data are fundamentally used in classical DEA models, real-life problems often involve uncertainties characterized by fuzzy and/or random input and output data. We present a new input-oriented dual DEA model with fuzzy and random input and output data and propose a deterministic equivalent model with linear constraints to solve the model. The main contributions of this paper are fourfold: (1) we extend the concept of a normal distribution for fuzzy stochastic variables and propose a DEA model for problems characterized by fuzzy stochastic variables; (2) we transform the proposed DEA model with fuzzy stochastic variables into a deterministic equivalent linear form; (3) the proposed model which is linear and always feasible can overcome the nonlinearity and infeasibility in the existing fuzzy stochastic DEA models; (4) we present a case study in the banking industry to exhibit the applicability of the proposed method and feasibility of the obtained solutions.
