Abstract
Abstract Entropy and extropy are central measures in information theory. In this paper, Bayesian non-parametric estimators to entropy and extropy with possibly right censored data are proposed. The approach uses the beta-Stacy process and the difference operator. Examples are presented to illustrate the performance of the estimators.
