Unsupervised Single Valued Neutrosophic Sets Approach for Cloud Clustering

This work presents an innovative approach to integrating restricted rationality and strategic manipulation into multi-attribute decision-making in product style design, resulting in more precise and objective outcomes. The suggested approach employs cloud model clustering and unsupervised Single-Valued Neutrosophic Sets (SVNS). SVNS is derived by constructing pairwise comparison ratio square matrices between baseline attributes and prospective alternatives, following the scientific clustering of decision experts. SSVNC denotes the degrees of real, false, and questionable membership. The relative weights of the standard attributes are established by analysing the evaluation outcomes of different solutions for each common trait. Cloud model clustering is employed to exclude conflicting and unreasonable experts, hence attaining precise weights for design judgements. This model incorporates multi-granularity linguistic factors. The integration of the significance of generic attributes and human assessment yields a composite score for each prospective response. The feasibility and efficacy of the proposed strategy are demonstrated through a case study in automotive design aesthetics. The results emphasise the method’s capability to safeguard against nefarious strategic manipulation and effectively address complex and confusing multi-attribute decision-making challenges in vehicle stylistic design.
