In this paper, a new production possibility set is defined for the first time by using chance constraint under the premise that the inputs and outputs of decision-making units (DMUs) are regarded as uncertain variables. An uncertain data envelopment analysis (DEA) model is developed to evaluate the efficiency performance of DMUs, and the model is improved to enhance its ability to distinguish efficient DMUs. Given the competitive landscape among DMUs, a cost reallocation problem based on the efficiency of DMUs is studied. Initially, we construct an optimization model aimed at maximizing DMU’s efficiency, allowing each DMU to propose an initial efficiency evaluation proposal that maximizes its own interests, which is usually not satisfied by all DMUs. Consequently, we present an uncertain bargaining game model, through which the efficiency evaluation proposals of each DMU are continuously adjusted until a consensus is reached that satisfies all DMUs. Moreover, we also provide deterministic forms for all relevant models and verify their feasibility. Then, we design a bargaining game algorithm to determine the final efficiency evaluation proposal. We prove the convergence of this algorithm and demonstrate that the obtained efficiency evaluation proposal constitutes a Nash equilibrium solution. Finally, a classic numerical example is used to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

For random diffusion problems, traditional methods strongly rely on sampling the random space. This necessitates solving the corresponding PDEs for a large number of samples, resulting in high computational costs. To this end, we propose an ensemble method to ensure that all samples share a common stiffness matrix. This significantly improves the computational efficiency. Furthermore, this ensemble method can be combined with LU decomposition or block Krylov subspace iterative methods to further improve computational efficiency. Although the ensemble method avoids solving PDEs multiple times, the high-dimensional challenges posed by the multiscale characteristics remain. Therefore, we employ CEM-GMsFEM to construct an effective reduced-order ensemble model, reducing computational costs. For the proposed ensemble method, we provide a rigorous convergence analysis.
