Malmquist TFP Index Measurement Using Non-Linear Programming Models in DEA-based Average Efficiency

This paper investigates Malmquist TFP index using DEA-based average efficiency. Average efficiencies are calculated by non-linear programming models in multiple periods on cross weights. Also, Malmquist index break down into average efficiency changes and average technological changes using 4 non-linear programming. This approach can applied for evaluating the performance of an entire organization with some branches in multiple time periods.
