Abstract :

The goal of this study is to bring neutrosophic structured element theory into the assessment of the entrepreneurial orientation of online peer-to-peer lending platforms, as well as to simplify the complicated processes of conventional neutrosophic decision making. This study discusses several methods for assessing the entrepreneurial orientation of online P2P lending systems. Two strategies are offered to deal with the triangular single-valued neutrosophic number multiple attribute decision making issues with incomplete definite knowledge on criteria's weights using the neutrosophic structured element approach. In terms of computational efficiency and performance, the recommended techniques produced encouraging results. The proposed methodologies are easy in understanding and computation, have a great lot of practical utility, and provide new concepts for applying neutrosophic structured element theory to neutrosophic MADM issues and other fields.

Keywords :
