Abstract :
Supplier performance evaluation is a key issue of supply chain and is complicated since a variety of attributes must be considered. In this article, an integrated DEA-NN model is proposed. By taking advantages from both data envelopment analysis (DEA) and neural networks (NN), an application of the integrated DEA-NN method is given. The results indicate that the method is effective and applicable.
