摘要
Efficiency evaluation proposed by Fare and Grosskopf is discussed. In this method the undesirable measures are treated by distinguishing between weak and strong disposability and using a directional distance function. This model allows to incorporate detailed preference information into efficiency evaluation through the weights. Weak disposability is automatically applied to the model when inequalities are changed in to equalities related to bad-output constraints.
