Neutrosophic extension of AROMAN
N-AROMAN (Neutrosophic extension of AROMAN) is a ranking multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) method introduced by Bošković et al. in 2023. It turns a decision matrix of alternatives scored on multiple criteria into a structured, reproducible result.
Key highlights
- Follows a transparent, reproducible computational procedure that can be audited step by step.
- Handles multiple criteria of differing scales and units within a single decision matrix.

When to use it
n-aroman extends AROMAN to handle Neutrosophic uncertainty. All arithmetic operations (normalisation, weighting, distance computation) are performed using Single-Valued Neutrosophic Set (SVNS: T, I, F; T,I,F ∈ [0,1], T+I+F ≤ 3) algebra. The final scores are defuzzified via score function S = (T − F + 1)/2 before ranking.
Strengths & limitations
- Follows a transparent, reproducible computational procedure that can be audited step by step.
- Handles multiple criteria of differing scales and units within a single decision matrix.
- Assumes full compensation — a strong score on one criterion can offset a weak score on another.
