On Tsallis extropy with an application to pattern recognition

open access: yes, 2021
Recently, a new measure of information called extropy has been introduced by Lad, Sanfilippo and Agr\`o as the dual version of Shannon entropy. In the literature, Tsallis introduced a measure for a discrete random variable, named Tsallis entropy, as a ...

Cumulative residual extropy of minimum ranked set sampling with unequal samples [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Recently, an alternative measure of uncertainty called cumulative residual extropy (CREX) was proposed by Jahanshahi et al. (2019). In this paper, we consider uncertainty measures of minimum ranked set sampling procedure with unequal samples (MinRSSU) in

Further properties of Tsallis extropy and some of its related measures [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
This article introduces the concept of residual and past Tsallis extropy as a continuous information measure within the context of continuous distribution. Moreover, the characteristics and their relationships with other models are evaluated.

A New Separation Index and Classification Techniques Based on Shannon Entropy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
The purpose is to use Shannon entropy measures to develop classification techniques and an index which estimates the separation of the groups in a finite mixture model.

A unified formulation of entropy and its application [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
In this paper, a general formulation of entropy is proposed. It depends on two parameters and includes Shannon, Tsallis and fractional entropy, all as special cases. This measure of information is referred to as fractional Tsallis entropy and some of its

The test of exponentiality based on the mean residual life function revisited [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
We revisit the family of goodness-of-fit tests for exponentiality based on the mean residual life time proposed by Baringhaus & Henze (2008).

Genetic enhancement, human extinction, and the best interests of posthumanity

open access: yesBioethics, Volume 38, Issue 6, Page 529-538, July 2024.
Abstract The cumulative impact of enhancement technologies may alter the human species in the very long‐term future. In this article, I will start showing how radical genetic enhancements may accelerate the conversion into a novel species. I will also clarify the concepts of ‘biological species’, ‘transhuman’ and ‘posthuman’.

Near-equilibrium measurements of nonequilibrium free energy

open access: yes, 2012
A central endeavor of thermodynamics is the measurement of free energy changes. Regrettably, although we can measure the free energy of a system in thermodynamic equilibrium, typically all we can say about the free energy of a non-equilibrium ensemble is

Neutrosophic moment exponential distribution: properties and modeling of child mortality rate data

open access: yesAIMS Mathematics
This research extends traditional statistical distribution theory, which often neglects issues such as ambiguity, imprecision, or indeterminacy. The primary aim is to develop the neutrosophic moment exponential distribution as a refined version of the ...

Combinatorial Information Theory: I. Philosophical Basis of Cross-Entropy and Entropy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
This study critically analyses the information-theoretic, axiomatic and combinatorial philosophical bases of the entropy and cross-entropy concepts. The combinatorial basis is shown to be the most fundamental (most primitive) of these three bases, since ...
