Decision making with complete and accurate information is ideal but infrequent. Unfortunately, in most cases the available information is vague, imprecise, uncertain or unknown. The theory of soft sets provides an appropriate framework for decision making that may be used to deal with uncertain decisions. The aim of this paper is to propose and analyze an effective algorithm for multiple attribute decision-making based on soft set theory in an incomplete information environment, when the distribution of incomplete data is unknown. This procedure provides an accurate solution through a combinatorial study of possible cases in the unknown data. Our theoretical development is complemented by practical examples that show the feasibility and implementability of this algorithm. Moreover, we review recent research on decision making from the standpoint of the theory of soft sets under incomplete information.
