fuzzy_entropy
— Determine the fuzzy entropy of regions.
fuzzy_entropy
calculates the fuzzy entropy of a fuzzy
set. To do so, the image is regarded as a fuzzy set. The entropy
then is a measure of how well the image approximates a white or
black image. It is defined as follows:
where MxN is the size of the image, and h(l) is
the histogram of the image. Furthermore,
Here, u(x(m,n)) is a fuzzy membership function defining the fuzzy
set (see fuzzy_perimeter
). The same restrictions hold
as in fuzzy_perimeter
.
Note that for fuzzy_entropy
, the Regions
must lie
completely within the previously defined domain. Otherwise an exception
is raised.

* To find a Fuzzy Entropy from an Image read_image(Image,'monkey') fuzzy_entropy(Trans,Trans,0,255,Entro)
The operator fuzzy_entropy
returns the value TRUE if
the parameters are correct. Otherwise an exception is raised.
