Abstract

In this paper, we derived the exact form of the entropy for Exponentiated Pareto Distribution (EPD). Some properties of the entropy and mutual information are presented for order statis- tics of EPD. Also, the bounds are computed for the entropies of the sample minimum and maximum for EPD.
