This paper investigates Renyi's generalized entropies under
linear and nonlinear scale-space evolutions of images.
Scale-spaces are useful computer vision concepts for both scale
analysis and image restoration. We regard images as densities
and prove monotony and smoothness properties for the generalized
entropies. The scale-space extended generalized entropies are applied
to global scale selection and size estimations. Finally, we introduce
an entropy-based fingerprint desciption for textures.
The full paper is available
