Entropy and hierarchical clustering: characterising the morphology of the urban fabric in different spatial cultures

In this work, we develop a general method for estimating the Shannon entropy of a bidimensional sequence based on the extrapolation of block entropies. We apply this method to analyse the spatial configurations of cities of different cultures and regions of the world. Findings suggest that this appr...
