A Neutrosophic Cognitive Map Based Approach to Explore the Health Deterioration Factors

Neutrosophy logic has gained an exponential fame in recent years among researchers and academician specially when there is need to deal with the different and difficult situations. Out of several neutrosophy-sets related concepts, the researchers have used neutrosophic cognitive maps for identifying the hidden and indeterminate factors that can influence a particular situation or can significantly affect any problems which involve making decisions. In our study we have used neutrosophic cognitive maps to explore the factors which can lead to health deterioration. The present method not only illustrates the way neutrosophic cognitive maps can be used but also suggests how we can help the masses to find out the health affecting factors and to control it. It is believed that the proposed method can be helpful for analyzing many such a situation and can set a bench mark in using soft computing for healthcare
