Abstract: | The cumulative residual entropy (CRE), introduced by Rao et al. (2004), is a new measure of uncertainty and viewed as a dynamic measure of uncertainty. Asadi and Zohrevand (2007) proposed a dynamic form of the CRE, namely dynamic CRE. Recently, Kumar and Taneja (2011) introduced a generalized dynamic CRE based on the Varma entropy introduced by Varma (1966) and called it dynamic CRE of order α and type β. In the present article, we introduce a quantile version of the dynamic CRE of order α and type β and study its properties. For this measure, we obtain some characterization results, aging classes properties, and stochastic comparisons. |
