Association rules, one of the most useful constructs in data mining, can be exerted to capture interesting dependencies between variables in large datasets. Herawan and Deris initiated the investigation of mining association rules from transactional datasets using soft set theory. Unfortunately, some existing concepts in the literature were unable to realize properly Herawan and Deris’s initial...

In this paper, we first introduce the concept of neutrosophic vague soft expert sets (NVSESs for short) which combines neutrosophic vague sets and soft expert sets to be more effective and useful. We also define its basic operations, namely complement, union, intersection, AND and OR along with illustrative examples, and study some related properties with supporting proofs. Lastly, this concept...

The whole mathematical scenario has changed with the advent of the Rough Set Theory, a powerful tool to deal with uncertainty and incompleteness of knowledge in information system. With the advancement of research, the Soft Set Theory has emerged as an advanced mathematical tool to deal with data associated with uncertainty. The present chapter endeavors to forge a connection between soft set a...
