  • This study focuses on conditional entropy frameworks based on the Kolmogorov--Nagumo (KN) mean. First, $(η, ψ)$-KN averaging (\texttt{EPKNAVG}), a KN-mean extension of the $η$-averaging (\texttt{EAVG}) framework for $(η, F)$-entropies, is introduced and proven to be equivalent to \texttt{EAVG} under suitable concavification conditions. Second, motivated by generalized $g$-vulnerability, a new framework is proposed for generalized $g$-conditional entropies. This framework captures conditional entropies beyond the scope of \texttt{EAVG}-type representations. In particular, it is shown that there exists an $α$ and a joint probability distribution $p_{X, Y}$ such that the Augustin--Csisz{\' a}r conditional entropy $H_α^{\mathrm{C}}(X|Y)$ cannot be represented by any $(η,F)$-entropy satisfying \texttt{EAVG}. In contrast, it is represented within the proposed framework. Furthermore, sufficient conditions are derived under which the proposed generalized $g$-conditional entropies satisfy the conditioning reduces entropy property and the data-processing inequality.
