Title
A homothetic reference technology in data envelopment analysis.
Abstract
•We can maintain homotheticity within a nonparametric DEA framework.•We define a piecewise linear homothetic reference technology.•Comparison of the BCC and the homothetic reference technology.•One purpose of the new technology is to add structure to the BCC technology.•Motivation for why such additional structure sometimes is warranted is provided.
