Entropy, complexity, and spatial information
We pose the central problem of defining a measure of complexity, specifically for spatial systems in general, city systems in particular. The measures we adopt are based on Shannon's (in Bell Syst Tech J 27:379-423, 623-656, 1948) definition of information. We introduce this measure and argue that increasing information is equivalent to increasing complexity, and we show that for spatial distri...
متن کاملSpatial distribution of urban green spaces using entropy model and coefficient of dispersion
In the present era, the importance and role of green space in the life and development of cities are to the extent that it is mentioned as one of the indicators of sustainable development. In sustainable urban development, proportional distribution of green space according to the balanced distribution of the population is one of the principles of establishing geographical justice. The purpose o...
متن کاملThree Perspectives on Complexity $-$ Entropy, Compression, Subsymmetry
There is no single universally accepted definition of ‘Complexity’. There are several perspectives on complexity and what constitutes complex behaviour or complex systems, as opposed to regular, predictable behaviour and simple systems. In this paper, we explore the following perspectives on complexity: effort-to-describe (Shannon entropyH , Lempel-Ziv complexity LZ), effort-to-compress (ETC co...
متن کاملEntropy and order in urban street networks
Many complex networks erase parts of their geometry as they develop, so that their evolution is difficult to quantify and trace. Here we introduce entropy measures for quantifying the complexity of street orientations and length variations within planar networks and apply them to the street networks of 41 British cities, whose geometric evolution over centuries can be explored. The results show...
متن کاملthe spatial distribution pattern of urban services measurement in fifth region of tehran using entropy and williamson models
following rapid and explosive population growth in urban settlements that was result of immigration, urban servicing as an important issue in urban planning has been studied equality in services distribution in urban areas causes equality and social justice. this paper investigates urban services distribution pattern ( educational, health, cultural, religious and sport) in 5th region of tehran ...
