A Generalized Measure of Cumulative Residual Entropy

In this work, we introduce a generalized measure of cumulative residual entropy and study its properties. We show that several existing measures of entropy such as cumulative residual entropy, weighted cumulative residual entropy and cumulative residual Tsallis entropy, are all special cases of this generalized cumulative residual entropy. We also propose a measure of generalized cumulative entropy, which includes cumulative entropy, weighted cumulative entropy and cumulative Tsallis entropy as special cases. We discuss generating function approach using which we derive different entropy measures. We provide residual and cumulative version of Sharma-Taneja-Mittal entropy and obtain them as special cases this generalized measure of entropy. Finally, using the newly introduced entropy measures, we establish some relationships between entropy and extropy measures.
