N2  - An Interval Neutrosophicset (INS) is an instance of a Neutrosophic set and also an emerging tool foruncertain data processing in real scientific and engineering applications. Inthis paper, several distance and similarity measures between two IntervalNeutrosophic sets have been discussed. Distances and similarities are veryuseful techniques to determine interacting segments in a data set. Here we havealso shown an application of our similarity measures in solving a multicriteriadecision making method based on INS’s. Finally, we take an illustrative examplefrom [14] to apply the proposed decision making method. We use the distance aswell as the similarity measures between each alternative and ideal alternativeto form a ranking order and also to find the best alternative. We compare theobtained results with the existing result in [14] and also reveal the bestdistance and similarity measure to find the best alternative and also point outthe best alternative.
