model_lgo: Linear Generalized Oriented DEA model.

In deaR: Conventional and Fuzzy Data Envelopment Analysis

Linear Generalized Oriented DEA model.

Description

It solves linear generalized oriented DEA models. By default, models are solved in a two-stage process (slacks are maximized).

Usage

model_lgo(datadea,
            dmu_eval = NULL,
            dmu_ref = NULL,
            d_input = 1,
            d_output = 1,
            rts = c("crs", "vrs", "nirs", "ndrs", "grs"),
            L = 1,
            U = 1,
            maxslack = TRUE,
            weight_slack_i = 1,
            weight_slack_o = 1,
            returnlp = FALSE,
            ...)

Arguments

datadea	A deadata object with n DMUs, m inputs and s outputs.
dmu_eval	A numeric vector containing which DMUs have to be evaluated. If NULL (default), all DMUs are considered.
dmu_ref	A numeric vector containing which DMUs are the evaluation reference set. If NULL (default), all DMUs are considered.
d_input	A value, vector of length m, or matrix m x ne (where ne is the length of dmu_eval) with the input orientation parameters. If d_input == 1 (default) and d_output == 0, it is equivalent to input oriented.
d_output	A value, vector of length s, or matrix s x ne (where ne is the length of dmu_eval) with the output orientation parameters. If d_input == 0 and d_output == 1 (default), it is equivalent to output oriented.
rts	A string, determining the type of returns to scale, equal to "crs" (constant), "vrs" (variable), "nirs" (non-increasing), "ndrs" (non-decreasing) or "grs" (generalized).
L	Lower bound for the generalized returns to scale (grs).
U	Upper bound for the generalized returns to scale (grs).
maxslack	Logical. If it is TRUE, it computes the max slack solution.
weight_slack_i	A value, vector of length m, or matrix m x ne (where ne is the length of dmu_eval) with the weights of the input slacks for the max slack solution.
weight_slack_o	A value, vector of length s, or matrix s x ne (where ne is the length of dmu_eval) with the weights of the output slacks for the max slack solution.
returnlp	Logical. If it is TRUE, it returns the linear problems (objective function and constraints) of stage 1.
...	Ignored, for compatibility issues.
