Recently, an alternative measure of uncertainty called extropy is proposed by Lad et al. [12]. The extropy is a dual of entropy which has been considered by researchers. In this article, we introduce an alternative measure of uncertainty of random variable which we call it cumulative residual extropy. This measure is based on the cumulative distribution function F. Some properties of the proposed measure, such as its estimation and applications, are studied. Finally, some numerical examples for illustrating the theory are included.
Abstract. Tsallis entropy and order statistics are important in engineering reliability, image and signal processing. In this paper, we try to extend the concept of Tsallis entropy using order statistics. For this purpose, we propose the Tsallis entropy of order statistics and for it we obtain upper and lower bounds and some results on stochastic comparisons.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
