A single valued neutrsophic set is one of the most successful extensions of the classical set, fuzzy set, intuitionistic fuzzy set, Pythagorean fuzzy set and q-rung orthopair fuzzy set due to the fact that it can handle uncertain data in more wider way. In this paper, we introduce some new generalized weighted similarity measures based on the exponential functions defined on truth-membership function, indeterminacy membership function and falsity membership function of a single valued neutrosophic set to study the independent influences of the truth-membership function, indeterminacy membership function and falsity membership function. The salient features of these proposed similarity measures are studied in detail. Based on the proposed similarity measures, we propose a multi attribute decision making method. To show the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method, an investment decision making problem is demonstrated.
