and denote the entropy and maximum entropy of geometric information quantified by the entropy of the Voronoi region. is the total number of vertices in the dual graph, while represents the sum of neighbors for all vertices. is the average number of neighbors for each vertex, indicating spatial relationship information. is the geometric spatial equilibrium. stands for the geometric spatial concentration.
