Abstract: The efficiency evaluation and ranking is a sort of mu1tiple criteria decision-making (MCDM) problem involving several complex factors. Very often, using an MCDM method requires experts to express their opinions in terms of criterion weighting, according to their knowledge and experience. Among MCDM methods, Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) can perform the tasks of efficiency evaluation and ranking without previously having weighted the criteria, while Grey entropy can objectively uncover criterion weights with no need of additional information. Additionally, a robust efficiency evaluation or ranking system should not rely on single MCDM method, because different MCDM methods may produce dissimilar results together with disparate implications. This paper therefore proposes a hybrid solution for ranking the results of efficiency evaluations using DEA and Grey entropy.
