Inverse DEA-R models for generalized restructuring analysis
Abstract A generalized restructuring refers to an action in a commercial environment in which a homogeneous set of units is restructured to create a new set of units in the same environment to achieve specific performance goals. Inverse data envelopment analysis (InvDEA) is a useful analytical tool based on multiple-objective mathematical ...
