Group decision making method based on single valued

neutrosophic Choquet integral operator
HAN Lili1, WEI Cuiping2
Abstract Single valued neutrosophic set (SVNS) depicts not only the incomplete
information, but also the indeterminate information and inconsistent information which
exist commonly in belief systems. The existing decision making methods for SVNS
consider the case that the attributes are independent, and cannot handle the correlation
among attributes. Based on the Choquet integral and the cosine similarity degree of
single valued neutrosophic number, we propose an operator to aggregate single valued
neutrosophic numbers (SVNNs), which can deal with the single valued neutrosophic
information with connective attributes. By using the proposed single valued neutrosophic
Choquet integral operator, an approach is given for the multi-attribute group decision
making problems with SVNNs. An example is showed to illustrate the validity and
applicability of the proposed method.
Keywords multi-attribute group decision making, single valued neutrosophic sets,
Choquet integral, aggregation operators
