Decision-Making with Fermatean Neutrosophic Vague Soft Sets Using a Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution by Najla Althuniyan, Abedallah Al-shboul, Sarah Aljohani, Kah Lun Wang, Kok Bin Wong, Khaleed Alhazaymeh, Suhad Subhi Aiady

“…To overcome these limitations, we propose the Fermatean neutrosophic vague soft set (FNVSS), an advanced extension that integrates the concepts of neutrosophic sets with Fermatean membership functions into the framework of vague sets. The FNVSS model enhances the representation of truth, indeterminacy, and falsity degrees, providing greater flexibility and resilience in capturing ambiguous and imprecise information. …”
