Abstract
According to the different levels of economic development in China’s provinces, this paper uses principal component analysis to establish a comprehensive index system for evaluating the level of economic development, and then uses cluster analysis to classify 31 provinces in China into economically developed regions, economically relatively developed regions, and economically underdeveloped regions. Next, based on the results of regional division, this paper uses the fixed panel data model to empirically analyze the impact of national and regional industrial upgrading on independent innovation capability, and the model is tested for robustness by systematic generalized moment estimation. The results show that: Industrial upgrading can effectively promote the improvement of national and regional independent innovation capabilities. On the whole, the industrial upgrading transferred to the tertiary industry can effectively promote the improvement of independent innovation capability; moreover, in both economically developed regions and economically underdeveloped regions, the process of industrial upgrading to the secondary and tertiary industries can effectively promote the improvement of regional independent innovation capabilities. Finally, according to the results of empirical analysis, the paper puts forward policy enlightenment of industrial upgrading and suggestions on improving independent innovation ability.
Highlights
With the deepening of economic globalization, affected by the global financial crisis and competition in the international market, countries around the world have been improving the international competitiveness of their industries through scientific and technological innovation and industrial restructuring

Summary
With the deepening of economic globalization, affected by the global financial crisis and competition in the international market, countries around the world have been improving the international competitiveness of their industries through scientific and technological innovation and industrial restructuring. Following the development trend of the world, China has started to implement the industrial upgrading strategy. In order to realize the sustainable and healthy development of economy, and to achieve the goal of optimizing the allocation of resources of the whole society, the implementation of industrial upgrading strategy is the only way out in front of our country. To implement the strategy of industrial upgrading, we must change the original economic development model, implement the strategy of innovation-driven development, abandon the traditional factor-driven development model, and enhance the competitiveness of China’s industry in the world with scientific and technological innovation. The key to the strategic transformation of China’s economic development is to improve the ability of independent innovation
