Data envelopment analysis and their application in chosen branch
BANDÍK, Tomáš
Data envelopment analysis is one of methods how to compare the efficiency of transformation of the inputs to the outputs among production units. It helps to improve the efficiency and to identify weak points in production systems. The target of DEA is to divide focused subjects to efficiency and non-efficiency groups, comparing the amount of used sources as inputs and the amount of outputs. At first there are described some important conceptions in theory part. Then explanation of principes DEA follow and basic models analysis description too. The desription supposes constant returns to scale and variable returns to scale. There is contain a chapter devoting to description of using software. The practical part of my bachelor thesis is focused on using DEA to compare different countries by HDI ( human developmet index) The solution of this case work with characteristics used by calculating HDI.

Data Envelopment Analysis – extension and application in automotive industry
Synková, Rut ; Jablonský, Josef (advisor) ; Cahlík, Tomáš (referee) ; Ivaničová, Zlatica (referee)
The Models of the Data Envelopment Analysis are the instruments for benchmarking of homogenous production units. The first models had been formulated by the end of 70th in the last century and since then have been the subject of interest in the theoretical area as well as in the analytical area. The thesis refers to the models of the Data Envelopment Analysis and its development in the theoretical area. The second goal of the thesis is an application of models of the Data Envelopment Analysis in industrial environment and illustration of its possible use by investment decision. The domestic literature on the area of the Data Envelopment Analysis has not been sufficient. The thesis is therefore mapping the present stage of knowledge in this area and further widens by the Allocation Models, Dynamic Analysis and the questions of non-controlled and imprecise variables. Models, which are formulated in the thesis, where afterwards applied on the data of the foreign companies. The numerical experiments were worked out by the software support for the models of the Data Envelopment Analysis, built in the environment of MS Excel. The main contributions of the thesis are in enlargement of the Dynamic Analysis by the partial continuous dynamic analysis and analysis of Efficiency Stability of the evaluated units. The other contribution is the wide application of the models of the Data Envelopment Analysis for benchmarking the companies, which mainly produce the motor vehicles. The thesis gives the overview of the often used models of the Data Envelopment Analysis as well as of the rarely used models. It discusses the possible solution to the special situations which may occur during the application. The thesis is divided into six chapters which, in typical case, contain next to the theory the illustrative application. The first chapter comprises of the subscription of the basic models of the Data Envelopment Analysis. In the second chapter, there are presented the Super-Efficiency Models and discussed the problems with zero inputs and outputs in these models. The overview of the Allocation Models is in following part. The Dynamic Analysis and analysis of Efficiency Stability are subjects of the fourth chapter. The fifth chapter is dedicated to non-controlled and imprecise variables. The last chapter focuses on application of the models in automotive industry and its possible use of results for estimated development of the evaluated units on Investment markets.

Multi-Criteria Decision Making in Data Envelopment Analysis
Mec, Martin ; Jablonský, Josef (advisor) ; Kalčevová, Jana (referee)
Data Envelopment Analysis is a multi-criteria decision making tool employing set of minimizing criteria (inputs) and set of maximizing criteria (outputs) for evaluating decision making unit efficiency. This method is accompanied by problems in field of input and output weight assignment, whereas benevolent basic model formulation enables decision making unit evaluation to be based on far unevenly distributed weight vector. Furthermore, data envelopment analysis basic model produces dichotomized dividing in form of efficient and inefficient decision making unit sets. Extensive set of efficient units occurs frequently and this causes difficulties in choosing one or less number efficient units. These phenomena appear often simultaneously. An implementation of multi-criteria decision making models into data envelopment analysis is exercised in order to reduce these undesired effects in applications.

Analysis of travel agency branches effectiveness with DEA models
Smrčka, Pavel ; Jablonský, Josef (advisor) ; Dlouhý, Martin (referee)
In today's fiercely competitive environment, not only in the tourism sector, we see a rise in the need to identify the weak and strong sides of the performance of the entire branch network of a travel agency, as well as of its components, the particular branches. This problem can be approached using the process of benchmarking. This method is currently widely used to compare the similarly behaving systems and processes in all areas of human activity. Data envelopment analysis models can be used as one of the methods of benchmarking. This thesis deals first with the theoretical description of the basic models of data envelopment analysis. It then moves on to concentrate on the description of the network-based models, which are then used in the practical part of the thesis. In this last part, it compares selected travel agency branches and identifies the deficiencies in particular areas of their performance.

Efficiency evaluation models and their applications
MARKOVÁ, Klára
Thesis themed "Efficiency evaluation models and their applications" deals with mathematical models for the efficiency evaluation of comparable production units and targets the utilization of Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) for this purpose. The thesis aims first to describe DEA models and mention possibilities of their application and then to practise the theoretical knowledge by using proper software in a factual instance. To reach this aim the thesis is composed of two parts {--} theoretical abstract and practical application. The abstract contains basic theory of DEA: fundamental principles, input data and results and description of primary, alternate and modified models. A summary of software applications that can evaluate efficiency using DEA follows. The abstract is closed with some real examples of DEA applications in practice. The second part of the thesis arose from cooperation with a fire department of a factual region of the Czech Republic. The efficiency of its 16 fire stations is compared by using a proper DEA model. A number of actions (output) and a number of employees, a level of fire equipment and an inside area (inputs) are established for each fire station on the strength of the fire department{\crq}s statistics, databases and estimations. The efficiency calculation is performed through the use of the Frontier Analyst Professional, software application specially made for the DEA analysis. Regarding the outputs uncontrollable character an input-oriented DEA model is chosen for the calculation of the fire stations efficiency. A result of the DEA efficiency analysis consists in separating the effective and ineffective fire stations of the surveyed fire department. The potential improvement (inputs decrease), necessary to reach the maximal efficiency, is proposed to each ineffective fire station. This suggestion is further adapted with respect to the real feasibility and the Czech legislative order. The practical part of the thesis is concluded with appreciation to what degree the stated targets were reached and to what degree the application of the DEA method to comparing the factual fire stations efficiency was rewarding.

Application of data envelopment analysis to the performance assessment of bank branches
Müller, Martin ; Jablonský, Josef (advisor) ; Šindelářová, Irena (referee)
The purpose of this diploma thesis is to describe an application of data envelopment analysis to the performance assessment of bank branches. The bank has used, in the first half of the year 2007, two DEA models: DEA model with the purchasing power as an implicit parameter and DEA model with the economic potential as an explicit parameter. I have used for the calculations different models, which are stated in the literature, (i.e. CCR model or BCC model), because in data received from the bank was the influence of the purchasing power already involved. Next purpose of this thesis is to summarize theoretical basis of DEA models and also this theoretical basis put together with existing foreign studies.
