Some properties of the entropy in the natural time.

چکیده
We show that the entropy S , defined as S identical with chi ln chi - chi ln chi [Phys. Rev. E 68, 031106 (2003)] where chi stands for the natural time [Phys. Rev. E 66, 011902 (2002)], exhibits positivity and concavity as well as stability or experimental robustness. Furthermore, the distinction between the seismic electric signal activities and "artificial" noises, based on the classification of their S values, is lost when studying the time-reversed signals. This reveals the profound importance of considering the (true) time arrow.

Some 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 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 کاملTsallis Entropy and Conditional Tsallis Entropy of Fuzzy Partitions
The purpose of this study is to define the concepts of Tsallis entropy and conditional Tsallis entropy of fuzzy partitions and to obtain some results concerning this kind entropy. We show that the Tsallis entropy of fuzzy partitions has the subadditivity and concavity properties. We study this information measure under the refinement and zero mode subset relations. We check the chain rules for ...
متن کاملA Preferred Definition of Conditional Rényi Entropy
The Rényi entropy is a generalization of Shannon entropy to a one-parameter family of entropies. Tsallis entropy too is a generalization of Shannon entropy. The measure for Tsallis entropy is non-logarithmic. After the introduction of Shannon entropy , the conditional Shannon entropy was derived and its properties became known. Also, for Tsallis entropy, the conditional entropy was introduced a...
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...
