Abstract
In this article, the entropies of record value distributions from some continuous probability models are computed and their properties are investigated, both analytically when feasible, and numerically. In an attempt to establish relationships between entropies of the parent and the corresponding record value distributions, the entropies of record value distributions associated with the uniform, exponential, Weibull, classical Pareto, normal, gamma, beta, and Cauchy distributions are considered in this article. The entropy of record value distributions associated with the uniform, exponential, Weibull, and Pareto distributions, have tractable closed forms. The entropies of record value distributions associated with the normal, gamma, beta, and Cauchy distributions do not have tractable closed forms and need further investigations. Some general conclusions are drawn in the final section.
