摘要
In this paper, we discuss on Renyi entropy of k-records arising from any continuous distribution in detail. The relevance of constructing k-records from random sample in the context of information contained in a random variable has been described in the study. Some important properties of Renyi entropy of k-records have been derived as well. Two relevant applications of Renyi entropy of k-records are discussed in this work. Finally, a simple estimator is proposed for Renyi entropy of k-records and a numerical illustration has been carried out using a real life data set.
