It accepts RGB matrix i.e 3D matrix too. But I am not sure of the value.

reshape() the image to a vector and call entropy on that.

If you have a binary mask, then use it to index the image, and the result will be a vector; you can calculate the entropy of the vector.

entropyWithinMask = entropy(grayImage(mask));
