Abstract (EN): There is no generally accepted definition for conditional Tsallis entropy. The standard definition of (unconditional) Tsallis entropy depends on a parameter alpha that converges to the Shannon entropy as alpha approaches 1. In this paper, we describe three proposed definitions of conditional Tsallis entropy suggested in the literature-their properties are studied and their values, as a function of alpha, are compared. We also consider another natural proposal for conditional Tsallis entropy and compare it with the existing ones. Lastly, we present an online tool to compute the four conditional Tsallis entropies, given the probability distributions and the value of the parameter alpha.
