Abstract
This manuscript aims to propose a new extension of the EDAS method, adapted for usage with single-valued neutrosophic numbers. By using single-valued neutrosophic numbers, the EDAS method can be more efficient for solving complex problems whose solution requires assessment and prediction, because truth- and falsity-membership functions can be used for expressing the level of satisfaction and dissatisfaction about an attitude. In addition, the indeterminacy-membership function can be used to point out the reliability of the information given with truth- and falsity-membership functions. Thus, the proposed extension of the EDAS method allows the use of a smaller number of complex evaluation criteria. The suitability and applicability of the proposed approach are presented through three illustrative examples.

Multicriteria decision making facilitates the evaluation of alternatives based on a set of criteria
In order to enable the usage of the Evaluation Based on Distance from Average Solution (EDAS) method for solving complex decision-making problems, a novel extension that enables usage of single-valued neutrosophic numbers is proposed in this article
