This has been possible by using Schmidt decomposition and expressing <em>s</em> and <em>d</em> bosons entanglement entropy in terms of Schmidt numbers. In this research, a simple method in the framework of IBM-1 has been presented for deriving the entanglement entropy in the Casten triangle. The results indicated that the entanglement entropy is sensitive to the shape-phase transition in the various regions of the Casten triangle. It was demonstrated that the entanglement entropy of <em>s</em> and <em>d</em> bosons in the semiclassical approximation depends only on the values of the deformation parameter (<em>β</em>) and is independent of the angular parameter (<em>γ</em>).
