Bivariate dynamic conditional failure extropy

Abstract: Nair and Sathar (2020) introduced a new metric for uncertainty known as dynamic failure extropy, focusing on the analysis of past lifetimes. In this study, we extend this concept to a bivariate context, exploring various properties associated with the proposed bivariate measure. We show that bivariate conditional failure extropy can uniquely determine the joint distribution function. Additionally, we derive characterizations for certain bivariate lifetime models using this measure. A new stochastic ordering, based on bivariate conditional failure extropy, is also proposed, along with some established bounds. We further develop an estimator for the bivariate conditional failure extropy using a smoothed kernel and empirical approach. The performance of the proposed estimator is evaluated through simulation studies.
