Slacks-based Measure (SBM) model is one of the models in Data Envelopment Analysis
(DEA). In many real world applications, data are often stochastic. A successful
approach to the address uncertainty in data is to replace deterministic data
via random variables, leading to Chance-constrained DEA (CCDEA). In this study,
the concept of chance-constrained programming approach is used to develop nondiscretionary
SBM model in the presence of stochastic data and also its deterministic equivalent
which is a nonlinear program is derived. Furthermore, it is shown that the deterministic
equivalent of the stochastic nondiscretionary SBM model can be converted into
a quadratic program. Finally, a numerical example demonstrates the application
of the proposed model.]]>Akarte, M.M., N.V. Surendra, B. Ravi and N. Rangaraj,200152511522Amid, A., S.H. Ghodsypour and C. O'Brien,2011131139145Amid, A., S.H. Ghodsypour and C.
