Abstract. In the present communication, we have generated some new information theoretic measures through the diagonal and non-diagonal elements of the matrix of probability terms obtained by post multiplication of a column vector by a row vector. The elements of columns of such a matrix consists of linear function whereas the row elements are in the form of linear, power, exponential, trigonometric and hyperbolic function. The concept will find application in measurement of diversity in biological systems and in other disciplines using information theory.
