Medical Diagnosis Using Distance-Based Similarity Measures of Single Valued Neutrosophic Multisets

Abstract

This paper proposes a generalized distance measure and its similarity measures between single valued neutrosophic multisets (SVNMs). Then, the similarity measures are applied to a medical diagnosis problem with incomplete, indeterminate and inconsistent information. This diagnosis method can deal with the diagnosis problem with indeterminate and inconsistent information which cannot be handled by the diagnosis method based on intuitionistic fuzzy multisets (IFMs).
