Summary/Abstract: Due to the complexity and uncertainty involved in real world decision problems, the determination and interpretation of Decision Makers' preference relations remain a challenging task for them. This paper develops a novel procedure for incorporating preference information in the efficiency analysis of Decision Making Units. The efficiency of Decision Making Units is defined in the spirit of Data Envelopment Analysis, complemented with Decision Maker's preference information. Our procedure begins by aiding the different decision making group members to express their incomplete fuzzy preferences by using a multiple objective linear programming approach for generating a common set of weights in the DEA framework.
