Improved cosine similarity measures of simplified neutrosophic sets for medical diagnoses
作者：
Highlights：
• We proposed improved cosine similarity measures of simplified neutrosophic sets (SNSs) based on cosine function, including single valued neutrosophic cosine similarity measures and interval neutrosophic cosine similarity measures, to overcome some disadvantages of existing cosine similarity measures of SNSs.
• We presented a medical diagnosis method based on the improved cosine similarity measures to solve medical diagnosis problems with simplified neutrosophic information.
• Two medical diagnosis problems were given to show the effectiveness and rationality of the diagnosis method using the improved cosine similarity measures.
