Abstract

To analyze the efficiency, the authors choose a DEA (Data Envelopment Analysis) approach applied to the principal components of the set of inputs and outputs separately and they introduce a new stage at the end of the process to study the robustness of the efficient branches. This study of the robustness adds the fact of not applying DEA to the original inputs and outputs, but to the principal components of these two sets separately.
