Abstract :
The values of the information categories “density”, “texture” and “contour” correlates with the information loss caused by the reduction of the image scale. For large scales the information loss of the category “density” is greater than the information loss of the categories “texture” and “contour”. This is reverse for small scales. For different amounts of density ranges an estimation of scale numbers is done for which this reverse case is valid
