A game theoretic approach to modeling undesirable outputs and efficiency decomposition in data envelopment analysis

作者：

Highlights：

• Conventional DEA is based on input-minimization and output-maximization assumptions.

• There are circumstances in DEA where some output variables should be minimized.

• We consider three measures of efficiency in DEA models with undesirable outputs.

• We propose a new model to integrate these measures into an overall efficiency score.

• We present a case study to demonstrate the applicability of the proposed model.
