Neutrosophic soft sets with applications in decision making

Abstract

We firstly present definitions and properties in study of Maji \cite{maji-2013} on neutrosophic soft sets. We then give a few notes on his study. Next, based on \c{C}a\u{g}man \cite{cagman-2014}, we redefine the notion of neutrosophic soft set and neutrosophic soft set operations to make more functional. By using these new definitions we construct a decision making method and a group decision making method which selects a set of optimum elements from the alternatives. We finally present examples which shows that the methods can be successfully applied to many problems that contain uncertainties.
