Uncertainty quantification based on residual Tsallis entropy of order statistics [PDF]
In this study, we focused on investigating the properties of residual Tsallis entropy for order statistics. The reliability of engineering systems is highly influenced by order statistics, for example, when modeling the lifetime of a series system and ...

On cumulative and relative cumulative past information generating function
In this paper, we introduce the cumulative past information generating function (CPIG) and relative cumulative past information generating function (RCPIG). We study its properties. We establish its relation with generalized cumulative past entropy (GCPE)

Extropy and Varextropy estimators with applications
In many statistical studies, the measure of uncertainties like entropy, extropy, varentropy and varextropy of a distribution function is of prime interest. This paper proposes estimators of extropy and varextropy.
