中文摘要：

为了促进我国资源枯竭型城市的经济转型,保持其可持续发展,采用模糊模式识别理论,研究了典型资源枯竭型城市—阜新市的可持续发展评价指标体系和定量评价方法,并对阜新市1999年和2007年两年的可持续发展能力进行了对比分析。结果表明：2007年经济的可持续性好于1997年,说明阜新市的经济可持续性正在不断提高。该模式识别方法意义明确,评价结果符合实际,对国内类似城市的可持续发展评价具有一定的参用价值。

英文摘要：

To improve the economic transition and sustainable development in resources-exhausted cities, an assessment index system and a quantitative assessment method for assessing sustainable development in Fuxin, a resources-exhausted city, are proposed based on fuzzy pattern recognition theory. The comparative study shows that the economic sustainability in 2007 is better than that in 1999 in Fuxin. It means that the economic sustainability in Fuxin is continuously improved. The method developed proves to be practical and can be applied in other resources-exhausted cities in China.
