TLDR
In this article, the authors use DEA to model DMUs that produce in two stages, with output from the first stage becoming input to the second stage, and apply the model to Major League Baseball, demonstrating its advantages over a standard DEA model.Abstract:
We show how to use DEA to model DMUs that produce in two stages, with output from the first stage becoming input to the second stage. Our model allows for any orientation or scale assumption. We apply the model to Major League Baseball, demonstrating its advantages over a standard DEA model. Our model detects inefficiencies that standard DEA models miss, and it can allow for resource consumption that the standard DEA model counts towards inefficiency. Additionally, our model distinguishes inefficiency in the first stage from that in the second stage, allowing managers to target inefficient stages of the production process.read more

Production scale-based two-stage network data envelopment analysis
Junfei Chu,Joe Zhu +1 more
TL;DR: A new network data envelopment analysis (DEA) approach for two-stage network systems considering a match between the production scale of the substages and the intermediate measure levels and identifies the overall efficiency, divisional efficiencies, and frontier projection using either an envelopment or a multiplier network DEA model.

Exploring the benchmarks of the Taiwanese investment trust corporations: Management and investment efficiency perspectives
TL;DR: An additive efficiency decomposition approach in data envelopment analysis (DEA) and a network-based ranking approach in DEA are jointly used to rank and identify ITCs that can be treated as benchmarks, demonstrating that the sample I TCs have higher investment efficiency than the management efficiency.

Japanese Bank Productivity, 2007–2012: A Dynamic Network Approach
TL;DR: In this article, the authors estimate a dynamic network directional output distance function for 100 Japanese banks operating during 2007-2012, and extend previous DN methods to measure the performance of three types of Japanese commercial banks: city banks, regional banks and second regional banks.

Measuring the performance of Chinese regional innovation systems with two-stage DEA-based model
Jie Wu,Zhixiang Zhou,Liang Liang +2 more
TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper employed data envelopment analysis (DEA) to determine a multifactor innovative performance system that inherently recognises the trade-off among various factors and developed a tool to measure the innovative performance of Chinese RIS in the period of 2001-2005.

The performance evaluation of banks considering risk: an application of undesirable relation network DEA
TL;DR: Network DEA is discussed by considering the inputs and outputs of a bank's surrounding production processes as additional undesirable factors and integrates the dual nature of risks.

Productivity and intermediate products: a frontier approach
Rolf Färe,Shawna Grosskopf +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a non-parametric productivity measure that explicitly incorporates intermediate products is proposed, which is based on the Productivity Index (PII) and employs a nonparametric approach to measure productivity.

Productivity and Intermediate Products: A Frontier Approach
Rolf Färe,Shawna Grosskopf +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors introduce a frontier model for productivity measurement that explicitly recognizes that some inputs are produced and consumed within the production technology, where intermediate inputs may also be final output.

An intermediate input model of dairy production using complex survey data
Rolf Färe,Gerald Whittaker +1 more
TL;DR: It is found that the decomposition of production into subproduction processes reduces the dimensions of problem specification, with the effect that a larger number of variables may be usefully included in the model.
