Panel data is composed of three dimensions: object, index and time, it has no mature clustering algorithm because of its complexity and dynamic data structure. Two clustering methods for multi index panel data are proposed in this paper. These two methods are respectively weighted from the index perspective and time perspective, and on this basis, the two-step clustering method is used for clustering. Then these methods are applied to cluster analysis of regional economy. The empirical results show that these two methods can effectively complete the clustering of the research objects, and have their own emphasis on the feature extraction angle of the panel data.
