I would like to find out about ways of measuring the information content of a single-colour, two-dimensional line drawing -- a histogram, for example. I have heard that people working in areas such as pattern recognition have defined this sort of thing, but I am not quite sure of how to find references on the subject. I would very much appreciate hearing from someone who could point me in the right direction. In replying, please remember I am a statistician with only a basic knowledge of information theory.
