New color‐measuring instruments known as multiangle spectrophotometers have been recently created to measure and characterize the goniochromism of special‐effect pigments in many materials with a particular visual appearance (metallic, interference, pearlescent, sparkle, or glitter). These devices measure the gonioapparent color from the spectral relative reflectance factor and the L*a*b* values of the sample with different illumination and observation angles. These angles usually coincide with requirements marked in American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) and Deutsches Institut Für Normung standards relating to the gonioapparent color, but the results of comparisons between these instruments are still inconclusive. Therefore, the main purpose of this study is to compare several multiangle spectrophotometers at a reproducibility level according to ASTM E2214‐08 guidelines. In particular, we compared two X‐Rite multi‐gonio spectrophotometers (MA98 and MA68II), a Datacolor multi‐gonio spectrophotometer (FX10), and a BYK multi‐gonio spectrophotometer (BYK‐mac). These instruments share only five common measurement geometries: 45° × ?30° (as 15°), 45° × ?20° (as 25°), 45° × 0° (as 45°), 45° × 30° (as 75°), 45° × 65° (as 110°). Specific statistical studies were used for the reproducibility comparison, including a Hotelling test and a statistical intercomparison test to determine the confidence interval of the partial color differences ΔL*, Δa*, Δb*, and the total color difference ΔE*ab. This was conducted using a database collection of 88 metallic and pearlescent samples that were measured 20 times without the replacement of all the instruments. The final findings show that in most measurement geometries, the reproducibility differences between pairs of instruments are statistically significant, although in general, there is a better reproducibility level at certain common geometries for newer instruments (MA98 and BYK‐mac). This means that these differences are due to systematic or bias errors (angle tolerances for each geometry, photometric scales, white standards, etc.), but not exclusively to random errors. However, neither of the statistical tests used is valid to discriminate and quantify the detected bias errors in this comparison between instruments. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Pearlescent pigments are widely used in printing due to their optical, chemical and physical properties. To analyse the effects of goniochromism they produce, the colorimetric characterisation of materials printed with pearlescent pigments requires multi‐angular measurements. In this study, the colours of prints enhanced with pearlescent pigments were measured by means of a digital camera, relying on the empirical camera characterisation method. Since this method is time‐consuming, it was altered to enable estimates of colorimetric values for different geometries to be measured on the basis of images captured at one viewing angle. This approach was based on the use of artificial neural networks which were shown to provide sufficient flexibility for the given task. The results indicate that the images obtained at the viewing angle of 45° aspecular (measuring geometry 45°/asp 45°) accurately estimate CIELab values for all of the tested measuring geometries. The proposed method is therefore not only time‐efficient but also reduces the associated errors due to the camera's movement, and enables the estimation of colorimetric values for those viewing angles inaccessible by camera. 相似文献

Color tolerances of curved gonio‐apparent panels have been studied in this work. To achieve that, an experimental set‐up of the illumination and tilt variation of two identical coated panels was designed for simulation of curved panels with both concave and convex borders and with and without effect pigments (perceived as solid and gonio‐apparent colors, respectively). Finally, visual and instrumental measures were collected with both curvatures. The results show that the relationship of the instrumental color difference with the tilt angle can be modeled by a second‐order and the vertex did not depend on illumination, but on coating type. The critical angles (the angle marked when the color discrepancy between two identical samples is merely perceived) assessed by the observers showed that they were not equal according to border, nor according to coating type. The color tolerances at these angles were clearly higher than the conventional chromatic thresholds of industrial color comparisons. 相似文献

In this study, the effect of the plasma process and the possibility of replacing metallic mordants with plasma treatment were investigated in natural dyeing with almond shell waste as a novel natural colorant. The use of a smaller amount of metallic mordants and plant than most of the current natural dye applications is a major advantage of dyeing with almond shell extract. Plasma‐treated and untreated wool fabrics were dyed without mordant and using a smaller amount (0.2 g/l) of alum, iron(ii ) sulfate and copper(ii ) sulfate. Three mordanting methods, namely premordanting, simultaneous mordanting and post‐mordanting, were applied. Colour measurements and light and wash fastness values were compared. Significant colour differences were observed among the mordanting methods. Simultaneous mordanting resulted in the lightest colours with all the mordants. Generally, post‐mordanting produced duller colours and lower a* and b* values than premordanting. The plasma process generated significant colour value differences and colour yield increases, giving more homogeneous dyeing visually, and also ensured a greater impact of mordanting. However, compared with metallic mordants, plasma itself did not create completely different colour shades and fastness improvement. It was necessary to use mordants in order to achieve increased fastness properties (especially light fastness) and a different colour gamut. 相似文献

Characterisation targets usually include a set of physical coloured samples. A characterisation model can be derived between the colorimetric values (tristimulus values) and camera responses (RGB values) taken from an imaging device such as a digital camera capturing the colours in the target. The performance of such a model is highly dependent upon the number of colours and the colour region in the characterisation target. An ideal characterisation target should provide accurate model prediction without requiring too many samples. In this paper, a computational method is presented for colour selections to train a camera characterisation model based on a fourth‐order polynomial model including 35 terms. Compared with other available methods, the newly developed method performed better. It is proposed that this method be applied to generate generic targets in terms of colorimetric values. These targets should work reasonably well for a wide range of materials. 相似文献

The interest in gonioapparent pigments (metallic, pearlescent, interference, or diffractive) has increased in the last few years, especially for applications in the automotive industry. To assure a proper characterization of colors with gonioapparent pigments, commercial devices have appeared to characterize the color in different geometries, which are called multiangle spectrophotometers. As the gonioapparent pigments and multiangle instruments are relatively new, no studies exist regarding the instrumental‐based procedure followed in the industry, and if the results provided are in agreement with the observer perception. Consequently, the main objective of this study was to examine the correlation of the instrumental color differences with visual assessments. The instrumental color difference was calculated with the color difference formula AUDI2000 (specific for this sector) between the pairs of similar samples of three types of coated panels (solid, metallic, and pearlescent). The values measured by a telespectroradiometer in a directional lighting booth and the colorimetric values obtained by means of a multiangle spectrophotometer BYK‐mac were considered for this purpose. Additionally, a visual experiment was conducted to quantify the color difference by using the gray‐scale method. The results revealed that an acceptable instrumental correlation existed despite the visual and the instrumental correlation being worse. In particular, it was checked that observers accepted a larger number of color pairs, that is, the visual color difference was smaller than the tolerance demanded by the industry (derived from AUDI2000). © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Optimal colours for human vision occur on the boundary of a three‐dimensional object‐colour solid, and result from optimal reflectance spectra that take on only the values 0 and 1, with at most two transitions between those values. Different illuminants lead to different solids. If there are two illuminants and a single sensing device, then we can construct a six‐dimensional double object‐colour solid by concatenating colour signals from both illuminants. Colours on the boundary of a double‐object solid, and the spectra that generate them, can also be called optimal. This article shows that, while optimal spectra for double solids take on only the values 0 and 1, there is no maximum number of transitions between those values: given a device, we can always construct two illuminants such that the resulting double object‐colour solid has an optimal reflection spectrum with as many transitions as desired. 相似文献

A low‐cost four‐colour (RBYK) dye‐based ink‐jet printing system for textiles was introduced in this study, in which red and blue inks were employed instead of the magenta and cyan inks used in half‐tone printing. The basis of a colour‐management system for this device was developed by determining the mapping between XYZ tristimulus values of output colours and the digital RBYK values using polynomial transforms. A second‐order equation was found to give the best performance with an average characterisation error of under 7 CIELAB units. 相似文献

Skin‐tone has been an active research subject in photographic colour reproduction. There is a consistent conclusion that preferred skin colours are different from actual skin colours. However, preferred skin colours found from different studies are somewhat different. To have a solid understanding of skin colour preference of digital photographic images, psychophysical experiments were conducted to determine a preferred skin colour region and to study inter‐observer variation and tolerance of preferred skin colours. In the first experiment, a preferred skin colour region is searched on the entire skin colour region. A set of nine predetermined colour centers uniformly sampled within the skin colour ellipse in CIELAB a*b* diagram is used to morph skin colours of test images. Preferred skin colour centers are found through the experiment. In a second experiment, a twice denser sampling of nine skin colour centers around the preferred skin colour center determined in the first experiment are generated to repeat the experiment using a different set of test images and judged by a different panel of observers. The results from both experiments are compared and final preferred skin colour centers are obtained. Variations and hue and chroma tolerances of the observer skin colour preference are also analysed. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Col Res Appl, 2013 相似文献

Two psychophysical experiments were carried out to investigate whether or not colour emotion responses would change with the advance of the viewer's age. Two forms of stimuli were used: 30 single colours (for Experiment 1) and 190 colour pairs (for Experiment 2). Four word pairs, warm/cool, heavy/light, active/passive, and like/dislike, were used to assess colour emotion and preference in Experiment 1. In Experiment 2, harmonious/disharmonious was also used in addition to the four scales for Experiment 1. A total of 72 Taiwanese observers participated, including 40 (20 young and 20 older) for Experiment 1 and 32 (16 young and 16 older) for Experiment 2. The experimental results show that for single colours, all colour samples were rated as less active, less liked, and cooler for older observers than for young observers. For colour combinations, light colour pairs were rated as less active and cooler for older observers than for young observers; achromatic colour pairs and those consisting of colours in similar chroma were rated as cooler, less liked and less harmonious for older observers than for young observers. The findings may challenge a number of existing theories, including the adaptation mechanism for retaining consistent perception of colour appearance across the lifespan, the modeling of colour emotion based on relative colour appearance values, and the additive approach to prediction of colour‐combination emotion. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

An object colour's Commission Internationale de l'Éclairage XYZ coordinates can change when it is viewed under different illuminants. The set of XYZ coordinates for all object colours, which is called the object‐colour solid, likewise varies under different illuminants. This article shows that, despite these changes, some properties are invariant under illuminant transformations. In particular, as long as the illuminant is nowhere zero in the visible spectrum, optimal colours take the same Schrödinger form, and no two optimal colours are metameric. Furthermore, all object‐colour solids have the same shape at the origin: they all fit perfectly into the convex cone (which we will call the spectrum cone) generated by the spectrum locus. The spectrum cone, itself, does not vary when the illuminant changes. The object‐colour solid for one illuminant can be transformed into the solid for another illuminant, by an easily visualized sequence of expansions and contractions of irregular rings, called zones. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Dichromatic colour vision is commonly believed to be a reduced form of trichromatic colour vision (referred to as the reductionist principle). In particular, the colour palette of the dichromats is believed to be a part of the colour palette of the trichromats. As the light‐colour palette differs from the object‐colour palette, the dichromatic colour palettes have been derived separately for light‐colours and object‐colours in this report. As to light‐colours, the results are in line with the widely accepted view that the dichromatic colour palettes contain only two hues. However, the dichromatic object‐colour palettes have proved to contain the same six component colours which constitute the trichromatic object‐colour palette (yellow, blue, red, green, black and white). Moreover, all the binary and tertiary combinations of the six component colours present in the trichromatic object‐colour palette also occur in the dichromatic object‐colour palettes. Yet, only five of the six component colours are experienced by dichromats as unitary (unique) object‐colours. The green unitary colour is absent in the dichromatic object‐colour palettes. The difference between the dichromatic and trichromatic object‐colour palettes arises from the fact that not every combination of the component‐colour magnitudes occurs in the dichromatic object‐colour palettes. For instance, in the dichromatic object‐colour palettes there is no colour with the strong green component colour. Furthermore, each achromatic (black or white) component colour of a particular magnitude is combined with the only combination of the chromatic components. In other words, the achromatic component colours are bound with the chromatic component combinations in dichromats. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Col Res Appl, 39, 112–124, 2014 相似文献

Characterization of different types of gem-quality diamonds with UV-VIS-NIR, FTIR and EDXRF spectroscopy reveals a number of optical centers. The colour of the diamonds is clearly caused by a combination of some or all of these centers. Other optically inactive defects can have an effect on the colour of a diamond by influencing the Fermi-level: the relative concentrations of different charged states of a defect in diamond is determined by the Fermi-level. A topographic short-wave UV (225 nm) fluorescence study of growth sector-dependent inclusion of defects in natural diamonds with different colours is also presented. These measurements show that fluorescencent defect centers decorate defect structures connected to growth history of the diamond. On the basis of these characterisation techniques, some interrelationships between different coloured diamonds are highlighted. 相似文献

A collection of printed fabrics for men’s shirts was designed and prepared using computer‐aided design/computer‐aided manufacturing technology. The colours for designs were ink‐jet printed on cotton fabrics with pigments and ultraviolet‐cured. These prints represented the target colours for subsequent flat‐screen printing, which was performed using pigment printing pastes and thermal curing. For an exact transfer of colours of the ink‐jet‐printed standard into the screen‐printing process, a computer recipe prediction method was used. A comparison of colorimetric parameters of fabrics printed with both printing techniques shows minimal and acceptable differences in the CIELab colour values. A comparison of colour fastness properties proves that very good colour fastness is achieved on the pigment‐printed fabrics produced with both printing techniques. The flat‐screen‐printed fabrics show better colour fastness to washing, perspiration and rubbing, while ink‐jet‐printed fabrics show better colour fastness to dry‐cleaning and light. The fabrics printed with both printing techniques have high rigidity and non‐elastic properties. The mechanical and physical parameters are strongly dependent upon the amount of the dry substance of the printing media applied on the cotton fabric surface, which is higher on screen‐printed fabrics. The ink‐jet‐printed fabrics show better air permeability than flat‐screen‐printed fabrics. 相似文献

This paper presents an efficient approach to solid‐colour and multicolour region segmentation in real yarn‐dyed fabric images. The approach is based on a novel model describing the spectral response of a multispectral imaging system to yarn‐dyed fabrics. The model indicates that solid‐colour regions cannot be distinguished from multicolour regions in terms of reflectance, tristimulus, or CIELAB values owing to a geometric term representing the influence of fabric surface condition on measured colours. The geometric term makes it difficult to determine the segmentation thresholds of CIEXYZ and CIELAB colour histograms. However, solid‐colour and multicolour regions can be detected in CIExyY space because chromaticity coordinates are impervious to the geometric term. The CIExyY histograms of a solid‐colour region accord with one Gaussian distribution, but those of a multicolour region accord with a combination of two Gaussian distributions. The CIEXYZ, CIELAB, and CIExyY colour distributions of both solid‐colour and multicolour yarn‐dyed fabrics were analysed in detail in simulation and real experiments. Experimental results show that solid‐colour yarn‐dyed regions can be distinguished from multicolour yarn‐dyed fabric regions by the shapes of CIExyY histograms, but cannot be distinguished by the shapes of CIEXYZ or CIELAB histograms. 相似文献

This paper proposes a novel method for segmentation of weft and warp yarns in multicolour yarn‐dyed fabric images. A multicolour yarn‐dyed fabric is cross‐woven by weft and warp yarns with different colours. When a multispectral imaging system is used to measure the colour of a multicolour yarn‐dyed fabric image, its weft and warp yarns need to be detected before analysing their colours. Detection of interstices between weft and warp yarns is firstly conducted. A modified K‐means clustering approach is then utilised to separate weft and warp yarns. The number of clusters is fixed to 2. The metric to measure the distance between a pixel and the mean of a cluster is the CIELAB colour difference. The initial means are determined by the expected values of fitted Gaussian distributions to CIExyY colour histograms. Experimental results show that the proposed method is promising for the segmentation of weft and warp yarns in multicolour yarn‐dyed fabrics, with an improved segmentation accuracy and much faster processing speed than K‐means clustering in CIEXYZ and CIELAB spaces. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to use a minimum number of measured colour patches to evaluate the colour gamut of an n‐colour printing process. Traditionally, the colour gamut of a printing system has been derived by printing and then measuring a gamut target for example, a profiling chart. For an n‐colour printing (printing with more than four process inks), it is desirable to know the colour gamut of the given set of inks without having to print a large number of test patches. Different spectral printer models were used to predict the gamut of a 7‐colour printing process. The colorant space was divided into sectors each containing four inks. For each printer model, the colour gamut of the each four‐ink sector was predicted. All sector‐gamuts were then combined to predict the overall colour gamut of the n‐colour process. This predicted gamut was then compared with the gamut obtained by measurement using a gamut comparison index (GCI). The Yule–Nielsen modified spectral Neugebauer (YNSN) model gave the best accuracy, at the cost of a larger number of input measurements, than other models. A combination of the Kubelka–Munk (KM) and YNSN models performed well with the fewest input measurements. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Col Res Appl, 40, 408–415, 2015 相似文献

In memory‐matching techniques, the remembered colour might differ from the original colour even if the viewing situation is the same. Our aim was to point out whether these so‐called memory shifts are significant in the everyday situations of viewing photos depicting sky, skin, or plant, or viewing standalone uniform colour patches of sky, skin, or plant colours. In many cases, significant memory shifts have been found. Considering only one type of object (sky or skin or plant), memory shifts turned out to be systematic in the sense that they were directed toward specific intervals of hue, chroma, and lightness. This tendency was more explicit for photos than for standalone colour patches. A method to quantify prototypical colours and their tolerance bounds was suggested. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Simultaneous contrast effects on lightness and hue in surface colours were investigated. Test colours, surrounded by induction colours, were matched by colours surrounded by neutral gray. The matching colours were selected from a series of samples that varied in either lightness or hue respectively. The lightness experiments were carried out by a panel of 20 observers on 135 test/induction colour combinations. The hue experiments were conducted on 51 test/induction colour combinations by a panel of eight observers. The lightness of the test colour was found to decrease linearly with the lightness of the induction colour, regardless of the hue of the induction colour. The magnitude of the lightness contrast effect in fabric colours was found to be about one‐quarter of that found in CRT display colours in a previous study. The hue contrast effect found in this study followed the opponent‐colour theory. Two distinctly different regions could be identified when the hue difference was plotted against hue‐angle difference between the induction colour and the test colour. The slope of the line in the region where the hue of the induction colour is close to the test colour was much larger than the slope in the other region, indicating that the hue contrast effect was more obvious when the induction colour was close to the test colour. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Part I of this article dealt with the appearance of metallic materials observed at a distance of a few meters. This part deals with the appearance at reading distance. Metallic materials exhibit various appearance attributes, including glitter, glints, depth, coherence glitter, binocular luster, binocular glitter, and binocular mottle. Color disparity is proposed as a measure of binocular luster. Metallic materials resemble grainy photographs, so the method used in photography to quantify graininess by measuring blending distance is introduced. Objective measures of granularity are proposed as correlates of graininess. The term “subsurface” is applied to the apparent “surface” lying beneath the glossy surface. Methods of optical image analysis, such as point spread function, edge spread function, Wiener spectrum, modulation transfer function, and image correlation are proposed to characterize the appearance of metallic surfaces. Polarization and cylindrical presentation may aid measurements. Binocular attributes of appearance introduced here require analysis of the disparity between two points of view. New kinds of pigments may require new methods of measurement. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Col Res Appl, 23: 362–373, 1998 相似文献
