Abstract: topsis is used to calculate comprehensive scores based on the entropy method or the TOPSIS method. This command allows users to specify both positive and negative indicators, and automatically performs data normalization, calculates information entropy, redundancy, and weights, and finally calculates a comprehensive score. Additionally, the program can use the TOPSIS method to calculate the score (optional, depending on user preference). If the topsis option is not used, the program will output the information entropy, redundancy, and weights of each indicator, and by default, display the comprehensive scores for the first 10 samples.
