An Overview of Neutrosophic Graphs by Nihar Ranjan Panda, Prasanta Kumar Raut, Amarendra Baral, Srikanta Kumar Sahoo, Sakya Singh Satapathy, Said Broumi

“…Neutrosophic graphs let you show and analyze relationships that aren't clear-cut because they give vertices and edges different levels of truth, indeterminacy, and falsity. Image processing, social network analysis, pattern recognition, and decision-making in the face of uncertainty all use neutrosophic graphs. …”
