Technologies of renewable energy (RE) play a vital role in increasing economic growth in many countries and present a solution for many social, ecological, and political problems. Though, RE faces many barriers that prevent its development. So, these barriers are ranked and identified in this work, including five main barriers and fifteen sub barriers. In addition, five strategies are identified and ranked. The first step in this work, the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) approach used to rank main and sub barriers under Single Valued Neutrosophic Sets (SVNSs). Then Neutrosophic Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) approach assessed the five strategies. The outcomes of this work show that Commercial barriers ranked as the highest barriers and social-ecological ranked as the lowest barriers by using the AHP approach. Outcomes by neutrosophic TOPSIS show that capital assistant ranked as the highest strategies and RE goals ranked as the lowest strategies. This work can help decision-makers, governments for building a RE by using these strategies to overcome barriers that faced them.

Lung cancer is the abnormal development of cells in the lung causes serious risk to the health since lung has an interconnected system of blood vessel and lymphatic channel exposed to metastasis. The survival rate of lung cancer depends greatly on the earlier diagnosis and staging of the lung cancer. Computed Tomography (CT) image is commonly employed for lung cancer diagnosis since they offer data regarding distinct portions of the lung. The exactness of finding tumor location, volume and shape acting a major role in positive treatment and diagnosis of tumor. This article designs a novel neutrosophic set with adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system for liver tumor segmentation and classification (NSANFIS-LTSC) model. The presented NSANFIS-LTSC model aims to identify and classify the presence of liver tumor from medical images. The presented NSANFIS-LTSC model primarily undergoes pre-processing to eradicate the noise. Followed by, the neutrosophic set (NS) based segmentation is applied to identify the affected tumor regions in the CT images. Besides, DenseNet-169 model is utilized to create feature vectors and dragonfly algorithm (DFA) is applied to tune the hyper parameters of the DenseNet-169 model. Finally, ANFIS classifier is exploited for the occurrence and classification of liver tumor. The simulation analysis of the NSANFIS-LTSC model is experimented using benchmark dataset and the results are investigated under several aspects. The simulation outcome reported the betterment of the NSANFIS-LTSC model over the recent methodologies.

These days’ user interests have become more critical for companies and firms to introduce their content due to the growth in networks and the internet. So this method used neutrosophic sets for network user interest. In this paper, we proposed five main criteria and seventeen sub-criteria to show user interest in the network. The multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) method is used to deal with various criteria and sub-criteria. So the Analytical Hierarchal Process (AHP) is used to show weights of criteria and sub-criteria to present the user interest in the network. An illustrative example provides to show calculations of the proposed method.

In this article an attempt is made to introduce the notion of neutrosophic infi-topological space as an extension of infi-topological space and fuzzy infi-topological space. Besides, we define some open sets, namely, neutrosophic infi-open set, neutrosophic infi-semi-open set, neutrosophic infi-pre-open set, neutrosophic infi-b-open set. Then, we define some continuous functions namely, neutrosophic infi-continuous function, neutrosophic infi-semi-continuous function, neutrosophic infi-pre-continuous function, neutrosophic infi-b-continuous function via neutrosophic infi-topological space. Further, we formulate several interesting results on them via neutrosophic infi-topological spaces.

This article exceedingly induces a completely new impression of graded mean integral representation in trapezoidal neutrosophic number domain corresponding to each membership function. Furthermore employing these integral representations, a new fangled graded mean integral distance measure is produced between two trapezoidal neutrosophic numbers. Notably, a numerical business economy based Multi Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) problem is fabricated along with the explication of neutrosophic theory to authenticate our suggested course of action in the decision making policy with the prominent solution scheme of VlseKriterijumska Optimizcija I Kaompromisno Resenje (VIKOR) technique for recognising the best alternative from a finite set. Lastly, the comparison work acts as an additional encouragement of our proposed scheme.
