Abstract :
Growing interest in color graphics and image processing stresses the need for a quantitative basis for requirements. A result obtained via fuzzy entropy measure for gray-tone images is extended to color. A heuristically derived relationship between the number of simultaneous colors versus number of gray levels for comparable information is presented.
