The neutrosophic sets are the prevailing frameworks that not only generalize the concept of fuzzy sets, but also analyse the connectivity of neutralities with different ideational spectra. In this article, we define a special type of neutrosophic set, named four-valued refined neutrosophic set (FVRNO), based on which various set-theoretic operators and properties of four-valued refined neutrosophic sets are studied. Often in many optimization problems of the real world, only the partial information about the values of parameters is available. In such situations, where impreciseness is involved in the information, classical techniques do not exhibit an appropriate optimal solution. A new concept to handle imprecise information is introduced and computational algorithm is formulated in four-valued refined neutrosophic environment. The new concept of optimization problem is an extension of intuitionistic fuzzy optimization as well as single-valued neutrosophic optimization.

“Neutrosophic Sets and Systems” has been created for publications on advanced studies in neutrosophy, neutrosophic set, neutrosophic logic, neutrosophic probability, neutrosophic statistics that started in 1995 and their applications in any field, such as the neutrosophic structures developed in algebra, geometry, topology, etc. Neutrosophy is a new branch of philosophy that studies the origin, nature, and scope of neutralities, as well as their interactions with different ideational spectra. This theory considers every notion or idea together with its opposite or negation and with their spectrum of neutralities in between them (i.e. notions or ideas supporting neither nor ). The and ideas together are referred to as . Neutrosophy is a generalization of Hegel's dialectics (the last one is based on and only). According to this theory every idea tends to be neutralized and balanced by and ideas - as a state of equilibrium. In a classical way , , are disjoint two by two. But, since in many cases the borders between notions are vague, imprecise, Sorites, it is possible that , , (and of course) have common parts two by two, or even all three of them as well. Neutrosophic Set and Neutrosophic Logic are generalizations of the fuzzy set and respectively fuzzy logic (especially of intuitionistic fuzzy set and respectively intuitionistic fuzzy logic).

We have proposed a novel framework that performs sentiment analysis on audio files by calculating their Single-Valued Neutrosophic Sets (SVNS) and clustering them into positive-neutral-negative and combines these results with those obtained by performing sentiment analysis on the text files of those audio.

This paper deals with single-objective linear goal programming problem with neutrosophic numbers. The coefficients of objective function and the constraints are considered as neutrosophic numbers of the form (p + qI), where p, q are real numbers and I denotes indeterminacy. In the solution process, the neutrosophic numbers are transformed into interval numbers.
