Global Malmquist and cost Malmquist indexes for group comparison
The Malmquist index (MI) has demonstrated its usefulness in comparing the performances of Decision Making Units (DMUs) performances. The global MI (GMI) has been suggested as a means to overcome three drawbacks of the MI: non-circularity, disparate measurements, and infeasibility. Recently, it has appeared that the MI can also be used to compare groups

Malmquist index evaluation of countries: 2000–2019
One of the sophisticated mathematical techniques for evaluating the relative efficiency of decision-making units (DMUs) in a multi-inputs-output setting is data envelopment analysis. A non-parametric productivity index called the Malmquist index (MI) tracks changes in a DMU’s overall factor output over time. This study seeks to present a broad overview

LDC agriculture: Nonparametric Malmquist productivity indexes [PDF]
Abstract This paper examines changes in agricultural productivity in 18 developing countries over the period 1961–1985. We use the nonparametric, output-based Malmquist index to examine whether the results from such an approach confirm results from other methods that have indicated declining agricultural productivity in less developed countries (LDCs)
