On Tsallis extropy with an application to pattern recognition

Recently, a new measure of information called extropy has been introduced by Lad, Sanfilippo and Agrò as the dual version of Shannon entropy. In the literature, Tsallis introduced a measure for a discrete random variable, named Tsallis entropy, as a generalization of Boltzmann–Gibbs statistics. In this work, a new measure of discrimination, called Tsallis extropy, is introduced and some of its properties are then discussed. The relation between …
