Comprehensive Evaluation of Innovation Competitiveness Based on Dispersion Maximization-TOPSIS Model:Taking 21 Cities in Guangdong Province as an Example
Innovation is the first driving force to promote scientific and technological progress,and also represents the core competitiveness of the city.In order to accurately evaluate the innovation competitiveness of 21 prefecture-level cities in Guangdong Province,an empirical analysis of the innovation competitiveness of each prefecture from 2011 to 2016 was carried out by constructing the maximization of deviation-TOPSIS(technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution)model,and the comprehensive score,ranking and evolution process of the innovation competitiveness of 21 cities were obtained.The results show that in terms of horizontal comparison,Guangzhou and Shenzhen are in the leading position in innovation competitiveness,followed by cities in the Pearl River Delta,while cities in the East and North of Guangdong are relatively lower.In terms of longitudinal comparison,there are 18 cities with slight changes in the ranking of innovation competitiveness,among which the biggest change is Chaozhou,Shaoguan has the most frequent changes,while Guangzhou,Shenzhen,Dongguan and Foshan have always ranked the top four in innovation competitiveness.Finally,according to the ranking of innovation competitiveness of 21 prefecture-level cities in Guangdong Province,policy suggestions are put forward.
