  • Abstract
    Entropy of order q (depending on the information contained in a sequence of gray levels of length q) and conditional entropy of an image are defined. Using these definitions, two algorithms are formulated and implemented with the help of its co-occurrence matrix. Their superiority for image thresholding (object-background classification) is established
