Abstract:
The paper studies the result of Zhu21and establishes a relationship between the efficiency in data envelopment analysis (DEA) and the pareto optimality under multiple objective linear programming (MOLP). It is shown that the DEA/preference structure models in Zhu21can be derived by traditional MOLP techniques. Incorporation of tradeoffs or value judgments is a direct result of using MOLP techniques. New uses of DEA are developed and described. The approach is applied to a set of Chinese cities.
