This paper introduces the Effective Number of Nonzeros (ENZ), a new metric for measuring sparsity in data. ENZ is derived from the Shannon entropy of coefficient magnitudes and provides a more nuanced understanding of sparsity than traditional counts by discounting less significant coefficients. The research also presents a family of related sparsity measures and a stable, efficient computational method for its application in signal recovery and image denoising. AI
