Abstract: In this paper, we introduce weighted fractional generalized cumulative past entropy of a nonnegative absolutely continuous random variable with bounded support. Various properties of the proposed weighted fractional measure are studied. Bounds and stochastic orderings are derived. A connection between the proposed measure and the left-sided Riemann-Liouville fractional integral is established. Further, the proposed measure is studied for the proportional reversed hazard rate models. Next, a nonparametric estimator of the weighted fractional generalized cumulative past entropy is suggested based on empirical distribution function. Various examples with a real life data set are considered for the illustration purposes. Finally, large sample properties of the proposed empirical estimator are studied.


Let \(K\) be the cumulative distribution function of a random variable \(X\) with support \((0,s)\). The authors define the weighted fractional generalized cumulative past entropy (WFGCPE) with \(\operatorname{CPE}_\gamma ^\psi (X) = \frac{1}{{\Gamma (\gamma + 1)}}\int_0^s {\psi (x)K(x){{[ - \ln K(x)]}^\gamma }dx} \), \(\gamma > 0\), derive for it some bounds and stochastic orders, show connection of the proposed measure with the left-sided Riemann-Liouville fractional integral, consider it for the proportional reversed hazard rate model and propose a nonparametric estimator based on an empirical distribution function. The empirical estimator of WFGCPE is compared with the standard deviation and Gini's mean difference for exponential distribution using stock prices in Japan (225), USA (Nashdaq), India (Nifty50), and France (Cac40) during the Russia-Ukraine war using data from ``\url{https://finance.yahoo.com/}.
