An Improved Grey Clustering Model with Multiattribute Spatial-Temporal Feature for Panel Data and Its Application

Abstract EN

Due to the complexity and uncertainty of the objective world and the limitation of cognition, it is difficult to extract the information and rules contained in the panel data effectively based on the traditional panel data clustering method.

Given this, considering that the absolute amount level, increasing amount level, and volatility level are the main indicators to represent the spatial-temporal feature of the panel data, a novel grey clustering model with the multiattribute spatial-temporal feature of panel data is established, and then it is applied in the regional high-tech industrialization in China.

The results show that the proposed model can make full use of the spatial-temporal feature information of the panel data, identify the problems existing in the clustering objects, and make the clustering results more objective and practical.
