Abstract
Abstract The dynamic cumulative residual (DCR) entropy is a helpful randomness metric that may be used in survival analysis. A challenging issue in statistics and machine learning is the estimation of entropy measures. This article uses progressive censored type II (PCT-II) samples to estimate the DCR Tsallis entropy (DCRTE) for the moment exponential distribution. The non-Bayesian and Bayesian approaches are the recommended estimating strategies. We obtain the DCRTE Bayesian estimator using the gamma and uniform priors via symmetric and asymmetric (linear exponential and general entropy) loss functions (LoFs). The Metropolis–Hastings algorithm is employed to generate Markov chain Monte Carlo samples from the posterior distribution. The accuracy of different estimates for various sample sizes, is implemented via Monte Carlo simulations. Generally, we note based on the simulation study that, in the majority of cases, the DCRTE Bayesian estimates under general entropy followed by linear exponential LoFs are preferable to the others. The accuracy measure of DCRTE Bayesian estimates using a gamma prior has smaller values than the others using a uniform prior. As sample sizes grow, the Bayesian estimates of the DCRTE are closer to the true value. Finally, analysis of the leukemia data confirmed the proposed estimators.
