A generalized DEA model for inputs (outputs) estimation under inter-temporal dependence
RAIRO - Operations Research - Recherche Opérationnelle, Tome 53 (2019) no. 5, pp. 1791-1805.

This paper extended the inverse Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) to the framework of dynamic DEA. The following question is studied under inter-temporal dependence assumption: among a set of decision making units (DMUs), to what extent should the input (output) levels of the DMU change if the efficiency index of a DMU remains unchanged, yet the output (input) levels change? This question is answered using (periodic weak) Pareto solutions of multiple-objective linear programming (MOLP) problems in the framework of dynamic DEA. In this study, unlike other proposed methods, the simultaneous increase and decrease of the various input (output) levels are considered under inter-temporal dependence. In addition, a numerical example with real data is provided to illustrate the objective of this research.
