Shrnutí:Interval neutrosophic sets (INSs) capturing the uncertainties by characterizing into the intervals of the truth, the indeterminacy, and the falsity membership degrees, is a more flexible way to explore the decision-making applications. In this paper, we develop a nonlinear programming (NP) model based on the technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS), to solve decision-making problems in which criterion values and their importance are given in the form of interval neutrosophic numbers (INNs). Based on the concept of closeness coefficient, we firstly construct a pair of the nonlinear fractional programming model and then transform it into the linear programming model. Furthermore, to determine the ranking of considered alternatives, likelihood-based comparison relations are constructed. Finally, an illustrative example demonstrates the applicability of the proposed method for dealing with decision making problems with incomplete knowledge.
