Entropy and Residual Entropy Functions and Some Characterization Results

چکیده
In this paper, we have developed conditions under which the entropy function and the residual entropy function characterize the distribution. We have also studied some stochastic comparisons based on the entropy measure and established relations between entropy comparisons and comparisons with respect to other measures in reliability. Conditions for decreasing (increasing) uncertainty in a residual life distribution are obtained. Some relations between the classes of distribution in reliability and the classes of distribution, based on the monotonic properties of uncertainty, in a residual life distribution are obtained.

On the Monotone Behavior of Time Dependent Entropy of Order alpha
In this paper we study some monotone behavior of the residual (past) entropy of order . We prove that, under some relation between the hazard rates (reversed hazard rates) of two distributions functions F and G, when the residual (past) entropy of order of F is decreasing (increasing) then the residual (past) entropy of G is decreasing (increasing). Using this, several conclusions regarding mo...
متن کاملEntropy Properties of Certain Record Statistics and Some Characterization Results
In this paper, the largest and the smallest observations are considered, at the time when a new record of either kind (upper or lower) occurs based on a sequence of independent random variables with identical continuous distributions. We prove that sequences of the residual or past entropy of the current records characterizes F in the family of continuous distributions. The exponential and the ...
متن کاملQuantile Approach of Generalized Cumulative Residual Information Measure of Order $(alpha,beta)$
In this paper, we introduce the concept of quantile-based generalized cumulative residual entropy of order $(alpha,beta)$ for residual and past lifetimes and study their properties. Further we study the proposed information measure for series and parallel system when random variable are untruncated or truncated in nature and some characterization results are presented. At the end, we study gene...
متن کاملSome properties of the parametric relative operator entropy
The notion of entropy was introduced by Clausius in 1850, and some of the main steps towards the consolidation of the concept were taken by Boltzmann and Gibbs. Since then several extensions and reformulations have been developed in various disciplines with motivations and applications in different subjects, such as statistical mechanics, information theory, and dynamical systems. Fujii and Kam...
متن کاملSome Results Based on Entropy Properties of Progressive Type-II Censored Data
In many life-testing and reliability studies, the experimenter might not always obtain complete information on failure times for all experimental units. One of the most common censoring schemes is progressive type-II censoring. The aim of this paper is characterizing the parent distributions based on Shannon entropy of progressive type-II censored order statistics. It is shown that the equality...
