Abstract

The weighted forms of generalized survival and failure entropies of order ($\alpha,\beta$) are proposed and some properties are obtained. We further propose the dynamic versions of weighted generalized survival and failures entropies and obtained some properties and bounds. Characterization for Rayleigh and power distributions are done by dynamic weighted generalized entropies. We further consider the empirical versions of generalized weighted survival and failure entropies and using the difference between theoretical and empirical survival entropies a test for exponentiality is considered.<br />Comment: 15 pages
