Abstract

This paper presented the objective evaluation method of Journals analyzed by the TOPSIS based on entropy weight and compared it with the traditional single valuation way. Based on the evaluation index, the objective weight of the index was calculated with the entropy method, the journals selected analyzed by TOPSIS. With the weights from normalized entropy, this paper calculated the distance from each journal to the best and the worst and worked out the rankings of the journal according to the proximity. Then the results from Principal Component Analysis and Single Evaluation Method were compared and analyzed, making the result of evaluating more objective and accurate.
