The Promise and Threat of Nanotechnology: Can Environmental Ethics Guide Us? [PDF]
The growing presence of the products of nanotechnology in the public domain raises a number of ethical questions. This paper considers whether existing environmental ethics can provide some guidance on these questions.

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.

A note on distance variance for categorical variables
This study investigates the extension of distance variance, a validated spread metric for continuous and binary variables [Edelmann et al., 2020, Ann. Stat., 48(6)], to quantify the spread of general categorical variables.

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)

Limit of the Maximum Random Permutation Set Entropy
The Random Permutation Set (RPS) is a new type of set proposed recently, which can be regarded as the generalization of evidence theory. To measure the uncertainty of RPS, the entropy of RPS and its corresponding maximum entropy have been proposed ...
