description | The Tsallis entropy is an extension of the Shannon entropy and is used extensively in physics. The cumulative residual Tsallis entropy, which is a generalization of the Tsallis entropy, plays an important role in the measurement uncertainty of random variables and has simple relationships with other important information and reliability measures. In this paper, some novel properties of the cumulative residual Tsallis entropy are disclosed. Moreover, this entropy measure is applied to testing the uniformity, where the limit distribution and an approximation of the distribution of the test statistic are derived. In addition, the property of stability is discussed. Furthermore, the percentage points and power against seven alternative distributions of this test statistic are presented. Finally, to compare the power of the suggested test with that of other tests of uniformity, a simulation study is conducted. |
