Abstract

Two different distributions may have equal cumulative residual entropy (CRE), thus a distribution cannot be determined by its CRE. In this article, we explore properties of the CRE and study conditions under which the CRE of the first-order statistics can uniquely determines the parent distribution. Weibull family is characterized through ratio of the CRE of the first-order statistics to its expectation. We have also some bounds for the CRE of residual lifetime of a series system.
