ivnpiv-Neutrosophic soft sets and their decision making based on similarity measure

In recent years, soft sets and neutrosophic sets have become a subject of great interest for researchers and have been widely studied based on decision-making problems. In this paper, we propose a new concept of the soft sets that is called interval-valued neutrosophic parameterized interval-valued neutrosophic soft sets (ivnpivn-soft sets). It is a generalization of the other soft sets such as fuzzy soft sets, intuitionistic fuzzy soft sets, neutrosophic soft sets, fuzzy parameterized soft sets, intuitionistic fuzzy parameterized soft sets, neutrosophic parameterized neutrosophic soft sets. Also, we proposed ivnpivn-soft matrices which are representative of the ivnpivn-soft sets. We then developed a decision-making method on the ivnpivn-soft sets and ivnpivn-soft matrices. Then, we proposed a numerical example to verify validity and feasibility of the developed method. Finally, the proposed method is compared with several different methods to verify its feasibility.
