''Measuring efficiency with neural networks. An application to the public sector''
( 2005, Vol. 3 No.15 )
 
 
In this note we propose the artificial neural networks for measuring efficiency as a complementary tool to the common techniques of the efficiency literature. In the application to the public sector we find that the neural network allows to conclude more robust results to rank decision-making units.
