The aim of this paper is to propose the generalized version of the multipolar neutrosophic soft set with operations and basic properties. Here, we define the AND, OR, Truth-Favorite, and False-Favorite operators along with their properties. Also, we define the necessity and possibility of operations for them. Later on, to extend it to solve the decision-making problems, we define some information measures such as distance, similarity, and correlation coefficient for the generalized multipolar neutrosophic soft set. Several desirable properties and their relationship between them are derived. Finally, based on these information measures, a decision-making algorithm is stated under the neutrosophic environment to tackle the uncertain and vague information. The applicability of the proposed algorithm is demonstrated through a case study of the medical-diagnosis and the decision-making problems. A comparative analysis with several existing studies reveals the effectiveness of the approach.
