Heritage evaluation and analysis based on entropy weight method: the study of Wengji ancient village in China

The assessment of the value of villages is the basis of village conservation work. By evaluating the value of residential houses, it is possible to conduct graded conservation and targeted use of traditional villages with limited resources while also helping to guide the urban planning of architectural heritage sites scientifically.
