چکیده

هدف: در مدل‌های کلاسیک تحلیل پوششی داده‌ها، ازیک‌طرف یک سیستم تولیدی برای اندازه‌گیری کارایی به‌عنوان جعبه سیاه در نظر گرفته می‌شود و توجهی به ساختار داخلی واحدهای تصمیم‌گیرنده در فرایند ارزیابی عملکرد نمی‌شود. بااین‌وجود، در نظر گرفتن ساختار درونی واحدها جهت شناسایی منابع ناکارایی برای محاسبه کارایی اهمیت به سزایی دارد. از طرف دیگر، مقادیر مشاهده‌شده‌ی داده‌های ورودی و خروجی‌ها در مسائل جهان واقعی گاهی نادقیق و مبهم هستند؛ بنابراین در این مقاله، مدل تحلیل پوششی داده‌های شبکه‌ای به‌منظور ارزیابی عملکرد واحدهای تصمیم‌گیرنده با ساختار دومرحله‌ای در محیط فازی موردبررسی قرار می‌گیرد که در آن مقادیر ورودی و خروجی برحسب اعداد فازی مثلثی نمایش داده می‌شوند.
روش‌شناسی پژوهش: برای حل مدل تحلیل پوششی داده‌های دومرحله‌ای فازی از رویکرد حساب فازی استفاده می‌شود و یک روش الفبایی برای محاسبه کارایی فازی فرآیندها و کارایی فازی سیستم پیشنهاد می‌گردد.
یافته ها: مزیت اصلی رویکرد پیشنهادی نسبت به رویکردهای موجود این است که مدل‌های کمتری برای یافتن کارایی فازی حل می‌کند.
اصالت/ارزش‌افزوده علمی: کاربرد مدل پیشنهادی با ارزیابی عملکرد 24 شرکت بیمه تبیین می‌شود

چکیده [English]

Purpose: In classical data envelopment analysis models, a production system for measuring performance is considered as a black box and no attention is paid to the internal structure of decision-making units in the process of evaluation performance. However, it is important to consider the internal structure of the units to identify sources of inefficiency to calculate efficiency. On the other hands, the observed values of input and output data in real world problems are sometimes imprecise and vague. Therefore, in this paper, the network data envelopment analysis model is used in order to evaluate the performance of decision-making units with a two-stage structure in a fuzzy environment in which input and output values are displayed in terms of triangular fuzzy numbers.
Methodology: To solve the fuzzy two-stage data envelopment analysis model, the fuzzy arithmetic approach is used and a lexicographic optimization method for calculating the fuzzy efficiency of processes and the fuzzy efficiency of the system is proposed.
Findings: The main advantage of the proposed approach over the exsiting approaches is that it solves fewer models for finding fuzzy efficiency.
Originality/Value: The application of the proposed model is explained by evaluating the performance of 24 insurance companies.
