Similarity measures (SM) and correlation coefficients (CC) are used to solve many problems. These problems include vague and imprecise information, excluding the inability to deal with general vagueness and numerous information problems. The main purpose of this research is to propose an m-polar interval-valued neutrosophic soft set (mPIVNSS) by merging the m-polar fuzzy set and interval-valued neutrosophic soft set and then study various operations based on the proposed notion, such as AND operator, OR operator, truth-favorite, and false-favorite operators with their properties. This research also puts forward the concept of the necessity and possibility operations of mPIVNSS and also the m-polar interval-valued neutrosophic soft weighted average operator (mPIVNSWA) with its desirable properties. Cosine and set-theoretic similarity measures have been proposed for mPIVNSS using Bhattacharya distance and discussed their fundamental properties. Furthermore, we extend the concept of CC and weighted correlation coefficient (WCC) for mPIVNSS and presented their necessary characteristics. Moreover, utilizing the mPIVNSWA operator, CC, and SM developed three novel algorithms for mPIVNSS to solve the multicriteria decision-making problem. Finally, the advantages, effectiveness, flexibility, and comparative analysis of the developed algorithms are given with the prevailing techniques.

How to select the most desirable pattern(s) is often a crucial step for decision making problem. By taking uncertainty as well as dynamic of database into consideration, in this paper, we construct a dynamic multicriteria decision making procedure, where the evaluation information of criteria is expressed by real number, intuitionistic fuzzy number, and interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy number. During the process of algorithm construction, the evaluation information at all time episodes is firstly aggregated into one, and then it is transformed into the unified interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy number representational form. Similar to most multicriteria decision making approaches, the TOPSIS method is applied in the proposed decision making algorithm. In particular, the distance between possible patterns and the ideal solutions is defined in terms of cosine similarity by considering all aspects of the unified evaluation information. Experimental results show that the proposed decision making approach can effectively select desirable pattern(s).

We introduce the concept of generalised interval-valued fuzzy soft set and its operations and study some of their properties. We give applications of this theory in solving a decision making problem. We also introduce a similarity measure of two generalised interval-valued fuzzy soft sets and discuss its application in a medical diagnosis problem: fuzzy set; soft set; fuzzy soft set; generalised fuzzy soft set; generalised interval-valued fuzzy soft set; interval-valued fuzzy set; interval-valued fuzzy soft set.
