The integration of the Metaverse into intelligent transportation systems has the potential to significantly improve traffic safety in smart cities. By creating a virtual replica of the physical world, the Metaverse can provide a platform for testing new traffic management systems, road designs, and vehicle technologies in a controlled and safe environment before implementing them in the real world. One way to integrate the Metaverse into intelligent transportation systems (ITS) is by enhancing traffic safety. This can be achieved by developing an evaluation model that considers both safety and traffic efficiency. The proposed evaluation methodology encompasses three phases. Firstly, the obligations/criteria, and subsidiary obligations are modeled into nodes within levels based on Tree Soft Sets (TrSSs). Secondly, the Opinion Weight Criteria Method (OWCM) is utilized for generating the weights for obligations and subsidiary obligations. Finally, the Root Assessment Method (RAM) harnesses the generated weights for assessing and ranking alternative approaches to improving traffic safety in smart cities. The utilized techniques are working under the authority of neutrosophic theory to support these techniques in uncertain and ambiguous circumstances. Subsequently, the proposed methodology is tested in a case study that considers three alternative approaches to improving traffic safety in a smart city. The criteria for evaluation include safety and traffic aspects. The results of the case study indicate that the proposed evaluation model effectively ranks the alternative approaches based on their safety and traffic efficiency. This suggests that the Metaverse can be effectively integrated to enhance traffic safety and improve overall transportation efficiency. Overall, the results of the case study suggest that the proposed evaluation model effectively ranks the alternative approaches based on their safety and traffic efficiency. This indicates that the integration of the Metaverse can indeed enhance traffic safety and improve overall transportation efficiency in smart cities.

This study aims to provide an overview of the requirements and criteria for selecting and managing sustainable and resilient suppliers and emphasizes the significance of integrating sustainability and resilience principles throughout the supply chain. Multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) is used to deal with various criteria. The double normalization-based multi-aggregation (DNMA) method ranks the alternatives. This study used 18 criteria and 12 alternatives to select the best one. By employing these criteria, organizations can identify suppliers that align with sustainability and resilience goals. The results show that alternative 3 is the best and alternative 11 is the worst. Also, the results show that the proposed method can provide a new method to rank alternatives.

Operations like complement, union, and integration are included in the idea. To improve decision-making accuracy, a quality-assessment distance measure is incorporated, offering a numerical representation of the disparity between various factors. Furthermore, the IVNFSS defines distance measures, which are used in the wastewater treatment process. To monitor water quality, IVNFSS, in conjunction with a distance measure, is a potent instrument whose application extends to water waste treatment procedures. This can completely change the way that water quality management is now done by providing a methodical way to guarantee the security and quality of drinking water.","PeriodicalId":498095,"journal":{"name":"Neutrosophic Systems with Applications","volume":"31 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139598074","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Computers reason in clear steps with statements that are either true or false, while humans reason with vague terms of common sense. Neutrosophy is a new branch of philosophy and machine intelligence that deals with neutralities, specifically the idea of indeterminacy that is evident and experienced in our everyday lives. Indeterminacy is interpreted as everything that falls between a concept, idea, statement, declaration, etc. and its opposite. The fundamental thesis of neutrosophy is to employ neutrosophic logic, an extension of fuzzy logic, to incorporate fuzzy truth into complex schemes of formal reasoning. Event calculus is a logical formalism used to describe and reason about events and their consequences over time. It is considered a valuable mathematical tool in the field of artificial intelligence (AI) for depicting dynamic systems where events occur and have temporal relationships with each other. However, previous studies in AI have neglected to adequately address the complexity of time. In this context, our work aims to introduce a neutrosophic event-based calculus as a logic formalism to handle situations where there is insufficient knowledge or ambiguity regarding the occurrence or consequences of certain events in a system. In particular, neutrosophic event calculus examines causality between ideas and the connection between tasks and actions in the presence of time. Due to the lack of related studies in the existing literature, we believe that our work will contribute to the field of knowledge representation by proposing an alternative to current forms of logic. We aim to demonstrate the capacity of neutrosophic event calculus in the context of knowledge representation and reasoning.","PeriodicalId":498095,"journal":{"name":"Neutrosophic Systems with Applications","volume":" 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139625431","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hence, selecting a WS provider among a variety of WS providers that perform the same function is a critical process. However, the crucial point is that various consumers may have varied needs when it comes to the quality attributes of services, such as cost, response time, throughput, security, availability, etc. These aspects of Web services are known as quality of service (QoS), or non-functional characteristics. Hence, this issue is the robust motivator for conducting this study. The objective of this study is to evaluate a set of WSs that provide various services for various consumers and organizations. This evaluation is conducted based on a set of QoS attributes. Hence, we are applying a new approach to describe this problem in the form of leaves or branches of a tree or hierarchy. This approach is represented in a soft tree set. Also, we leveraged Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) techniques such as entropy and weighted sum methods under the authority of the Single Value Neutrosophic (SVN) Scale. The entropy technique analyzes attributes or leaves in each level contained in the tree's soft approach, obtaining attributes’ weights. These weights are used to rank and recommend optimal WS providers through the application of these weights in WSM. The results of implementing entropy-WSM in a tree-soft approach indicated that WS2 is the optimal provider. In contrast, WS3 is the worst provider.","PeriodicalId":498095,"journal":{"name":"Neutrosophic Systems with Applications","volume":"8 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139448367","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
