广东省主要城市投资潜力分析

Investment Potential Analysis of Main Cities in Guangdong

城市投资潜力分析是对城市投资与发展状况的客观、综合的评价。通过构建城市投资潜力指标体系作为评价的标准,在主成分分析的基础上,采用最短距离法和类平均法两种聚类分析方法进行对比,既反映了广东21个主要城市的投资潜力,也找出了投资影响因素相近的城市群及其投资热点。采用提取主成分作为R型聚类分析指标的方法,也弥补了以往研究中只做排名的不足,为政府制定发展策略以及为投资者明确投资方向提供参考。

The analysis of city investment potentials is an objective and integrated evaluation for a city＇s investment and development. This paper takes indicators system of city investment potentials as a standard. Based upon principle component analysis, it applies both minimum distance and average distance cluster analysis for comparing with each other. Results not only reflect investment potentials of 21 main cities in Guangdong, but also find out cities and regions which are similar to each other on influence factors and their investment hot spots. Using principle components as R - cluster analysis＇ index, the paper also makes up shortages for some research methods of ranking names only. And we do hope this paper can provide suggestions for making investment and development policies for governors and investors.
