Designing pentapartitioned neutrosophic cubic set aggregation operator-based air pollution decision-making model

Environmental pollution is a global concern that has economic and health implications. Therefore, proper estimation using precise modeling can help in decision-making to address this externality. In science and engineering, there are a lot of different theories to help deal with the complex frame of the environment. The prime objective of these theories is to impart a plan of action to handle fuzzy data more precisely. Furthermore, humans need a platform that can correctly assign a value to optimize credence in a belief system. The indeterminacy is further classified into contradiction, ignorance, and unknown by a pentapartitioned neutrosophic set. On the other hand, a cubic set characterizes both the combined and the crisp value. The study introduces pentapartitioned neutrosophic cubic set, as it illustrates all of these attributes, allowing credence to be appropriately handled. The study also explained its operational laws and aggregation operators. Finally, this technique is used to develop and evaluate the air pollution models in major Pakistani cities like Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, and Peshawar. It will help the legislators to reevaluate current policies to mitigate this externality.
