Potential gains from carbon emissions trading in China: A DEA based estimation on abatement cost savings (2016, background): “…disposable desirable outputs; (ii) indirectly be treated as strongly disposable desirable outputs after a linear monotone transformation (Seiford and Zhu, 2002; Seiford and Zhu, 2005; Zhu 2014); or (iii) directly be treated as inputs which are freely or strongly disposable (Hailu and Veeman, 2001).”
Making forestry decisions with multiple criteria: A review and an assessment (2008, background): “In order to provide a better representation of the technology related to these industries, undesirable outputs have been incorporated into DEA models (see Hailu and Veeman, 2001; Hua et al., 2007).”
Modelling pollution-generating technologies in performance benchmarking: Recent developments, limits and future prospects in the nonparametric framework (2016, background): “(i) A first approach treats pollution as a free disposable in- put (Hailu & Veeman, 2001; Yang & Pollitt, 2009).2 The main argument behind this approach is that emissions of 1 Hereafter, the expressions “bad”, “undesirable”, “detrimental”, “incidental”, “resid- al”, and “unwanted” goods, as well as…”
Weak Disposability in Nonparametric Production Analysis with Undesirable Outputs (2005, neutral): “Following the notation of Hailu and Veeman (2001), the input quantities are represented by vector 1 ( ,..., ) N N x x + = ∈ x \ , the desired or good outputs by 1 ( ,..., ) M M v v + = ∈ v \ , and the undesirable outputs by 1 ( ,..., ) J J w w + = ∈ w \ .”
