The Generalized Neutrosophic Cubic Aggregation Operators and Their Application to Multi-Expert Decision-Making Method

In the modern world, the computation of vague data is a challenging job. Different theories are presented to deal with such situations. Amongst them, fuzzy set theory and its extensions produced remarkable results. Samrandache extended the theory to a new horizon with the neutrosophic set (NS), which was further extended to interval neutrosophic set (INS). Neutrosophic cubic set (NCS) is the generalized version of NS and INS. This characteristic makes it an exceptional choice to deal with vague and imprecise data. Aggregation operators are key features of decision-making theory. In recent times several aggregation operators were defined in NCS. The intent of this paper is to generalize these aggregation operators by presenting neutrosophic cubic generalized unified aggregation (NCGUA) and neutrosophic cubic quasi-generalized unified aggregation (NCQGUA) operators. The accuracy and precision are a vital tool to minimize the potential threat in decision making. Generally, in decision making methods, alternatives and criteria are considered to evaluate the better outcome. However, sometimes the decision making environment has more components to express the problem completely. These components are named as the state of nature corresponding to each criterion. This complex frame of work is dealt with by presenting the multi-expert decision-making method (MEDMM).

New Similarity and Entropy Measures of Interval Neutrosophic Sets with Applications in Multi-Attribute Decision-Making

Information measures play an important role in the interval neutrosophic sets (INS) theory. The main purpose of this paper is to study the similarity and entropy of INS and its application in multi-attribute decision-making. We propose a new inclusion relation between interval neutrosophic sets where the importance of the three membership functions may be different. Then, we propose the axiomatic definitions of the similarity measure and entropy of the interval neutrosophic set (INS) based on the new inclusion relation. Based on the Hamming distance, cosine function and cotangent function, some new similarity measures and entropies of INS are constructed. Finally, based on the new similarity and entropy, we propose a multi-attribute decision-making method and illustrate that these new similarities and entropies are reasonable and effective.
