Abstract: The discrete mathematics’ tournament is applied to a comprehensive evaluation, and the regional capacity assessment model is built by integrating with the rough set and entropy theory. Then, statistical data of eight coastal provinces is used to do empirical study. Through the study, it is found that on the one hand, the strength ranking of eight coastal cities’ regional science and technology innovation capacity is Guangdong, Jiangsu, Shandong, Zhejiang, Liaoning, Fujian, Hebei, and Guangxi in turn. The empirical conclusions reflect the reality more objectively and scientifically. On the other hand, tournament method has a general applicability in the comprehensive evaluation research. Furthermore, it also avoids the adverse effects from subjective factors and information overlap.

Key words: tournament, innovation ability, entropy, rough set
