Popis: The study presents the utilization of an innovative neutrosophic cross entropy-based technique for the discrimination of the antioxidant potential of Arisaema tortuosum leaf extract based on polyphenolic content. The effect of three extraction techniques, namely, Soxhlet extraction, ultrasound-assisted extraction, and maceration, have been analyzed on the percentage yield of the extract. The effect of solvents, namely, methanol, chloroform and hexane, on the percentage yield has also been explored. The leaf extract was found to exhibit significant antioxidant potential and polyphenolic content. Substantial discrimination was observed among antioxidant potential and polyphenolic contents with minimum neutrosophic cross entropy values designated to the extant higher amount of polyphenols in A. tortuosum leaf extract. The proposed neutrosophic cross entropy-based technique is beneficial for further mathematical treatments because of its symmetric nature in comparison with the existing methods, which may indicate vagueness in the evaluation information under certain situations and thus affects the prognosis analysis.
