RESUMO
The development of China's manufacturing industry is still facing the challenge of regional imbalance. To solve the problem of development imbalance, it is necessary to realize regional development. First, we must analyze the development characteristics of different regions. To this end, we consider the requirements of the new development era and design an evaluation index system for the high-quality development level of the manufacturing industry from the dimensions of innovation, green, and efficiency. Then construct a novel hybrid model which combines the grey incidence clustering model and AP algorithm for panel data in this paper. According to the statistical data from 2014 to 2018, we find out the high-quality development of China's manufacturing industry is characterized by obvious regional differences, different development stages and different constraints.
