Computes efficiency scores for the given DMUs (alternatives) using SMAA-D method and Additive Data Envelopment Analysis Model with imprecise data. For given number of buckets and samples, returns a matrix with alternatives in each row and buckets representing efficiency intervals in each column. Single cell indicates how many samples gave efficiency scores of respective alternative in respective bucket.

where:
%1 is a parameter named “number of samples”. This is a int, and the value should conform to the following constraint: The value should be a positive integer.. More formally, the constraint is:
%1 > 0
The default value is 100.
%2 is a parameter named “number of intervals”. This is a int, and the value should conform to the following constraint: The value should be a positive integer.. More formally, the constraint is:
%2 > 0
The default value is 10.
%3 is a parameter named “tolerance”. This is a float, and the value should conform to the following constraint: The value should be a non-negative number.. More formally, the constraint is:
%3 >= 0
The default value is 0.0.
%4 is a parameter named “transform to utilities”. This is a boolean. The default value is true.
%5 is a parameter named “boundaries provided”. This is a boolean. The default value is false.
%6 is a parameter named “function shapes provided”. This is a boolean. The default value is false.
