Abstract

Wang and Chin (Expert Syst Appl, 38:11678–11685, 2011 [25]) proposed an optimistic as well as pessimistic fuzzy CCR data envelopment analysis (DEA) model and an approach for solving it to evaluate the best relative fuzzy efficiency as well as worst relative fuzzy efficiency and hence, relative geometric crisp efficiency of decision making units (DMUs). In this chapter, it is shown that the fuzzy CCR models, proposed by Wang and Chin, are not valid and hence cannot be used to evaluate the best relative fuzzy efficiency as well as worst relative fuzzy efficiency and hence, relative geometric crisp efficiency of DMUs. To resolve the flaws of the fuzzy CCR DEA models, proposed by Wang and Chin, new fuzzy CCR DEA models are proposed. Also, a new approach is proposed to solve the proposed fuzzy CCR DEA models for evaluating the relative geometric crisp efficiency of DMUs.
