Abstract

In this study, we focus our attention on a kind of generalized fuzzy set. This generalized fuzzy set is known as neutrosophic octahedron sets (NOSs). NOSs are a combination of neutrosophic, intuitionistic fuzzy, and octahedron sets that provide a better platform for dealing with imprecise and ambiguous data. First of all, we analyze uncertainty, for this purpose, we need neutrosophic octahedron set that can also reduce the loss of information about ambiguity and uncertainty. We use NOS over TOPSIS method (technique to order the performance by similarity with the ideal solution). It is a most suitable technique for describing uncertain data in the TOPSIS method in order to allow more imprecision than the neutrosophic, intuitionistic fuzzy, and octahedron set. Thus, the TOPSIS method of NOSs in decision making is used to overcome the problems that arise during decision-making. We use this proposed structure to implement the selection of the energy source by a numerical example as an application. As a result, this model is valuable for decision-making and can be used to choose the most environmentally friendly energy source. Finally, we present an example to demonstrate the validity and effectiveness of the proposed strategy.

1. Introduction

Decision-making is a beneficial method in human activities to consider the appropriate option among alternatives with the highest degree of membership from a group of available possibilities in terms of parameters. In decision-making problems, the evaluated values of alternatives considering the evaluated attribute are often imprecise. The theme of uncertainty and vagueness is difficult, to understand and implement in different areas. So, Zadeh, the developer of fuzzy set theory [1], introduces fuzzy sets in this area to solve the complications and make it more usable. Fuzzy set theory can be applied to evaluate the elements of a set defined by a membership (MM) function in a closed interval . After fuzzy set theory, Zadeh [2] also introduced the theme of interval valued fuzzy set in 1975. Atanasove developed the intuitionistic fuzzy set [3] in 1986, with MM and nonmembership (NMM) degrees such that their sum is less than or equal to one. In 1989, Atanassov and Gargov [4] developed a new them with the help of intuitionistic fuzzy set which is known as interval valued intuitionistic fuzzy set. Lee et al. [5] in 2020 introduced octahedron set by combining interval-valued fuzzy set, an intuitionistic fuzzy set and a fuzzy set. The theme of neutrosophic sets developed by Smarandache [6–8] by expanding Atanasove’s ideas. He created the term “neutrosophic” because “neutrosophy” is etymologically related to “neutrosophic.” On the other hand, Lupiáñez [9] developed the structure of neutrosophic sets and their topology with basic algebraic operations. In 2005, Wang et al. [10] developed the structure of interval neutrosophic sets. In 2009, Bhowmik and Pal [11] distinguished between truth-based intuitionist neutrosophic sets and intuitionist neutrosophic sets. They established that all intuitionistic neutrosophic sets are neutrosophic sets, but not all neutrosophic sets are intuitionistic neutrosophic sets. In addition, some new INS operations have been defined, as well as illustrations of how the operations could be implemented in real scenarios. Maji [12] developed the structure of neutrosophic soft sets by using Smarandache’s idea of neutrosophic sets and also introduced some basic definitions and operation. In 2015, Alkhazaleh and Uluçay [13] initiated the theme of neutrosophic soft expert set with basic operations and also discussed real-life application. Alias et al. [14] established the theme of rough neutrosophic multisets in 2017 with basic operations and properties. The fuzzy sets discussed above are incapable of handling imprecise, uncertain, inconsistent, and incomplete periodic information. To overcome this challenge, Ali and Smarandache [15] expand the idea of neutrosophic sets and developed the structure of complex neutrosophic set. There are some many other applications for solving these uncertainty like [16–19]. In 2012, Balin et al. [20] developed multicriteria decision making model for energy sources. Huang et al. [21] worked on the application used in multicriteria decision making technique in the field of environmental science. TOPSIS is a most useful method. According to certain studies, the TOPSIS technique exhibits a monotonically increasing or decreasing preference for each criterion [22, 23]. Compensatory approaches, like TOPSIS, are widely used in numerous fields of multicriteria decision-making due to the potential of criteria modeling. Some researchers [24, 25] worked on the significance of TOPSIS approach in MADM problem. Pehlivan and Yalçın [26] utilized the TOPSIS approach in a neutrosophic environment to identify sustainable suppliers in a low market chain in 2022. Distinct techniques [27, 28, 30] utilize different versions of neutrosophic sets in decision making challenges, such as single valued neutrosophic sets, single valued neutrosophic type2 fuzzy sets, and type2 neutrosophic model. Jun et al. [29] discovered the cubic set in 2012. Jun et al. [30] studied the concept of cubic subalgebras/ideals in BCK/BCI-algebras and their characteristics. Jun et al. [31] have also presented the neutrosophic cubic set notion (NCS). Gulistan and Khan [32] show the extension of neutrosophic cubic set via complex fuzzy set with application. Some researchers [33, 34] have used the different version of fuzzy sets in the decision-making environment.

Since neutrosophic set provides higher uncertainty and ambiguity than intuitionistic fuzzy set, interval valued fuzzy set and fuzzy set. To further analyze uncertainty, we therefore require a neutrosophic octahedron set. Compared to intuitionistic octahedron sets and octahedron sets, neutrosophic octahedron sets also reduce information loss about ambiguity and uncertainty. So, neutrosophic octahedron set covers broader area as compare to intuitionistic fuzzy set, fuzzy set, and interval valued fuzzy set.

4. Energy Source Selection by TOPSIS Method

It is essential to select an energy source that has the least impact on the natural environment, and it must take into account crucial factors like as reliability, cost, and maintenance. As a result, selecting the optimal energy source is not a simple task, as this decision may be fraught with uncertainty and ambiguity. To deal with ambiguity and vagueness, Zadeh developed the fuzzy theory. In 1975, he defined interval-valued fuzzy sets as a more general class of fuzzy sets. Intuitionistic fuzzy sets, neutrosophic sets, interval neutrosophic sets, intuitionistic neutrosophic sets, neutrosophic cubic sets, neutrosophic soft sets, rough neutrosophic sets, and octahedron sets are some well-known kinds of fuzzy sets. We use neutrosophic octahedron sets to define decision making problem. The algorithms are proposed in this section. The algorithm shows the procedure of TOPSIS method based on the following terminologies. Some example of energy sources are solar energy, wind energy, geothermal energy, and hydropower energy.

Solar energy: solar power is the conversion of solar energy into thermal or electrical energy. Solar energy is the most abundant and environmentally friendly source of renewable energy available today. The source of solar energy is shown as in Figure 1.

Wind energy: wind is a type of solar energy. Winds are created by the heating of the atmosphere by the sun, the rotation of the Earth, and irregularities in its surface. The source of wind energy is shown as in Figure 2.

Geothermal energy: geothermal energy is the heat that exists in the earth’s crust. Geothermal energy is derived from the Greek words geo (earth) and therm (heat). Because heat is constantly produced in the earth, geothermal energy is a renewable energy source. The source of geothermal energy is shown as in Figure 3.

Hydropower energy: the conversion of energy from running water into electricity is known as hydroelectricity. It is the oldest and largest renewable energy source in the world. The source of hydropower energy is shown as in Figure 4.

These energy sources are renewable. These resources do not pollute the environment in any way, and have no effect on renewable resources. It is important to choose the best energy source for their country which minimum effects the environment. The important parameter of energy sources is reliability, yields, cost, and maintenance. Where stand for solar energy, wind energ, geothermal energy, and hydropower energy. These sources are evaluated against the four parameters which are represented by where these parameters stand for reliability, yields, cost, and maintenance.

For this purpose, we select a panel which are consist of expertise. The panel assessed the energy sources according to given criteria. The panel gives their judgements in the form of decision matrix. Suppose the decision matrix is represented by where shows evaluation of th alternative with respect to th criteria.

Step 1. Standardize the decision matrix as follows:

Step 2. Construct normalized decision matrix, using the following equation:

Step 3. Create the weighted normalized decision matrix using the equation below

Step 4. Identify the ideal and negative ideal solutions. Ideal solution where Negative ideal solution where

Step 5. Calculate the separation measures for each alternatives, with the help of the following equations as Separation from negative ideal alternatives is also expressed as

Step 6. Calculate the distance between relative closeness and ideal solution where select the option with closest to . The ranking order of and is shown as in Figure 5.

5. Comparison

Topsis method is a common technique to handle decision making problems. In a neutrosophic set, a group decision-making procedure was presented by Abdel et al. and Biswas et al. [35, 36]. The several iterations of the neutrosophic set were also used in decision-making issues by Zulqarnain et al. and Dey et al. [37, 38]. All of these techniques are relevant to the ongoing effort. We now contrast the suggested method with two comparable ways to analyze the benefits and drawbacks of the current model in order to demonstrate the technological achievements in this research. The primary distinction between them is that whereas Biswas focused on the hybridization of the two ideas, namely, generalized neutrosophic sets, and soft sets. Abdel examined the truth, indeterminacy, and falsity membership values. As a result, the decision data in the current model is broader. Consequently, the strategy described in this paper is more circumspect.

6. Conclusion

We proposed a new notion known as neutrosophic octahedron set in this article by combining the concepts of neutrosophic set, intuitionistic fuzzy, and octahedron set. The major goal of this concept is to resolve uncertainty in real-world situations. We also look at some basic NOS operations including union, intersection, and complement, as well as their characteristics. Define some operational features as well. We also discussed the fact that the need for energy planning has increased with the development of new energy-related technologies and energy sources. The problem of decision-making is made even more difficult by the need for collaboration between various stakeholders in order to produce effective decisions. In order to quantitatively reflect the ambiguity and imprecision of the data, neutrosophic octahedron sets are a useful tool. Finally, using our proposed method and a numerical example, we presented a decision-making process.

In the future, this structure can be extended in interval neutrosophic octahedron set and can be applied in many real-life applications such as pattern recognition, medical diagnosis, and personal selection. Moreover, one can use this concept and develop a new decision-making technique with VIKOR, ELECTRE, CODAS, and AHP under a neutrosophic octahedron environment.
