Abstract

This paper proposes a two-stage inverse DEA model combined with Stackelberg’s game theory for the efficiency measurement of China’s regional economic development and people’s living standards. The first stage is considered as the leader since it provides the capital and the infrastructure of the second stage. We give the required inputs of both leader and follower for producing more output levels by different percentages. We have found that in both stages, extra input resources are redundant for many areas when a higher level of output is required, which indicates the potential of improvement. Decision makers can assign specific tasks to each province according to their improvement potential. At the same time, we found that some ineffective areas may perform better and produce more output without new input introduced.

非合作两阶段逆DEA:中国区域经济发展与人民生活水平效率分析的Stackelberg博弈方法
本文结合Stackelberg博弈论,提出了中国区域经济发展和人民生活水平效率测度的两阶段反向DEA模型。第一阶段为第二阶段提供资金和基础设施,因此被认为是领导者。我们给出了领导者和追随者以不同百分比产生更多产出水平所需的投入。我们发现,在这两个阶段,当需要更高水平的产出时,额外的投入资源在许多领域是多余的,这表明了改进的潜力。决策者可以根据每个省的改进潜力分配具体的任务。同时,我们发现一些无效的领域在没有新投入的情况下可能会表现得更好,产生更多的产出。
