Abstract
AbstractRecently, A. S. Krishnan, S. M. Sunoj and N. U. Nair [Some reliability properties of extropy for residual and past lifetime random variables, J. Korean Stat. Soc. 2020, 10.1007/s42952-019-00023-x] introduced past extropy for measuring uncertainty contained in past lifetime of random variables. In the present study, we focus on the past extropy of k-records. The motivation for considering past extropy of k-records has been discussed in detail. We have also illustrated the merit of considering past extropy of k-records over past extropy of classical records and past extropy of original random sample using two real life data sets. Some important properties of past extropy of k-records are discussed in this work. We have expressed past extropy of k-records using past extropy of k-records arising from uniform distribution. The work proposes a simple estimator for past extropy of k-records as well.
