Hypersoft set is an extension of the soft set where there is more than one set of attributes occur and it is very much helpful in multi-criteria group decision making problem.

Hypersoft set is an extension of the soft set where there is more than one set of attributes occur and it is very much helpful in multi-criteria group decision making problem. In a hypersoft set, the function F is a multi-argument function. In this paper, we have used the notion of Fuzzy Hypersoft Set (FHSS), which is a combination of fuzzy set and hypersoft set. In earlier research works the concept of Fuzzy Soft Set (FSS) was introduced and it was applied successfully in various fields. The FHSS theory gives more flexibility as compared to FSS to tackle the parameterized problems of uncertainty. To overcome the issue where FSS failed to explain uncertainty and incompleteness there is a dire need for another environment which is known as FHSS. It works well when there is more complexity involved in the parametric data i.e the data that involves vague concepts. This work includes some basic set-theoretic operations on FHSSs and for the reliability and the authenticity of these operations, we have shown its application with the help of a suitable example. This example shows that how FHSS theory plays its role to solve real decision-making problems.

Statistics mainly concerned with data that may be qualitative or quantitative. Earlier we have used the notion of statistics in the classical sense where we assign values that are crisp. But in reality, we find some areas where the crisp concept is not sufficient to solve the problem. So, it seems difficult to assign a definite value for each parameter. For this, fuzzy sets and logic have been introduced to give the flexibility to analyze and classify statistical data. Moreover, we may come across such parameters that are indeterminate, uncertain, imprecise, incomplete, unknown, unsure, approximate, and even completely unknown. Intuitionistic fuzzy set explain uncertainty at some extent. But itis not sufficient to study all sorts of uncertainty present in real-life. It means that there exists data which are neutrosophic in nature. So, neutrosophic data plays a significant role to study the concept of indeterminacy present in a data without any restriction. The main objective of preparing this article is to highlighting the importance of neutrosophication of statistical data in a study to assess the symptoms related to Reproductive Tract Infections (RTIs) or Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs) among women by sampling estimation.
