Title :
A new technique for estimating confidence intervals on data envelopment analysis efficiency estimates
Author :
Anderson, Timothy R.
Abstract :
Summary form only given as follows. Previous chance constrained data envelopment analysis (DEA) approaches are surveyed followed with a new approach to chance constrained DEA. An example is given of calculating a confidence band for the estimated production function such that we can specify with a predetermined level of confidence, an interval containing the most likely production function
