Refined simplified neutrosophic sets (RSNSs) are appropriately used in decision-making problems with sub-attributes considering their truth components, indeterminacy components and falsity components independently. This paper presents the similarity measures of RSNSs based on tangent and cotangent functions. When the weights of each element/attribute and each sub-element/sub-attribute in RSNSs are considered according to their importance, we propose the weighted similarity measures of RSNSs and their multiple attribute decision-making (MADM) method with RSNS information. In the MADM process, the developed method gives the ranking order and the best selection of alternatives by getting the weighted similarity measure values between alternatives and the ideal solution according to the given attribute weights and sub-attribute weights. Then, an illustrative MADM example in a construction project with RSNS information is presented to show the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed MADM method under RSNS environments. This study extends existing methods and provides a new way for the refined simplified neutrosophic MADM problems containing both the attribute weight and the sub-attribute weights.

In this paper, we define projection and bidirectional projection measures between rough neutrosophic sets. Then two new multi criteria decision making methods are proposed based on neutrosophic projection and bidirectional projection measures respectively. Then the proposed methods are applied for solving multiple criteria group decision making problems. Finally, two numerical examples are provided to demonstrate the applicability and effectiveness of the proposed methods.

“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.

Neutrosophic theory and applications have been expanding in all directions at an astonishing rate especially after the introduction the journal entitled “Neutrosophic Sets and Systems”. New theories, techniques, algorithms have been rapidly developed. One of the most striking trends in the neutrosophic theory is the hybridization of neutrosophic set with other potential sets such as rough set, bipolar set, soft set, hesitant fuzzy set, etc.
