Type Article
Keywords
Cumulative entropy, Maximum ranked set sampling, Shannon entropy, Rényi entropy.
Abstract
Biradar and Santosha (2014) proposed maximum ranked set sampling procedure with unequal samples (MRSSU) to estimate the mean of the exponential distribution. In this paper, we consider information measures of MRSSU in terms of Shannon en- tropy, R´enyi entropy and Kullback-Leibler (KL) information. We also compare the uncertainty and information content of MRSSU with simple random sampling and ranked set sampling data. Finally, we develop some characterization results in terms of cumulative entropy and failure entropy of MRSSU.
