Probabilistic Efficiency Analysis Using Explainable Artificial Intelligence
Overview
Provides a probabilistic framework that integrates Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) (Banker et al., 1984) doi:10.1287/mnsc.30.9.1078 with machine learning classifiers (Kuhn, 2008) doi:10.18637/jss.v028.i05 to estimate both the (in)efficiency status and the probability of efficiency for decision-making units. The approach trains predictive models on DEA-derived efficiency labels (Charnes et al., 1985) doi:10.1016/0304-4076(85)90133-2, enabling explainable artificial intelligence (XAI) workflows with global and local interpretability tools, including permutation importance (Molnar et al., 2018) doi:10.21105/joss.00786, Shapley value explanations (Strumbelj & Kononenko, 2014) doi:10.1007/s10115-013-0679-x, and sensitivity analysis (Cortez, 2011) https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=rminer. The framework also supports probability-threshold peer selection and counterfactual improvement recommendations for benchmarking and policy evaluation. The probabilistic efficiency framework is detailed in González-Moyano et al. (2025) "Probability-based Technical Efficiency Analysis through Machine Learning", in review for publication.
