A set of orthonormal color matching functions is developed, in which the first is an all‐positive achromatic function, the second is red–green, and the third can be loosely described as blue–yellow. The achromatic function, proportional to the familiar $ bar y $ , is a sum of red and green cones. The red–green function uses the same cone sensitivities, but subtracted, with coefficients so that it is orthogonal to the achromatic one. The third function involves all three cones, but is primarily a blue sensitivity. Using this basis to compute the tristimulus vectors of narrow‐band lights at unit power gives Jozef Cohen's locus of unit monochromats, (LUM) an invariant shape now graphed in a space where the axes have intuitive meaning. The extreme points of the LUM reveal the wavelengths that act most strongly in mixtures, a close approximation to William Thornton's Prime Colors. In effect, decades of research converge in three functions and a vectorial schema, demystifying such issues as color rendering and the selection of additive primaries. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A CIELAB anomaly, in which smaller spectrophotometric errors at all wavelengths lead to larger CIELAB differences, is identified. It is shown that the reversal can occur throughout tristimulus space and is colorimetrically important during calibration procedures. Three numerical examples of the reversal, using data from the BCRA tiles, are given. The reversal cannot be attributed entirely to metamerism, which itself may cause large spectrophotometric error leading to small CIELAB difference. The effect is compounded by the nonlinearity of CIELAB relative to tristimulus coordinates. A recommendation for avoiding the reversal is offered. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Lights vary in their ability to render object spectral reflectances into color contrasts. When a light L1 is replaced by another L2, even if L2 matches L1 in chromaticity, systematic color shifts may occur, including a loss or gain of chromatic color. For instance, many familiar lights, when compared to daylight, dull red and green objects, rendering them closer to gray. An opponent colors method is appropriate to this discussion because it brings to the surface the notion of chromatic color, meaning actual departure from white or gray. In this article, an opponent‐colors analysis leads to a matrix formulation that serves two purposes. The effects of replacing L1 by L2 are estimated with a 3×3 “rendering matrix” P . Given an object's tristimulus vector under L1, the method makes an approximate prediction of the new tristimulus vector under L2. Thanks to the opponent formulation, matrix element P22 quantifies the gain or loss of redness and greenness, while P33 expresses gain or loss of blueness and yellowness. These in fact are major effects, so the method is both quantitative and explanatory. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Two white lights may have the same chromaticity, and yet when used to light an array of objects may differ in their ability to reveal colors. For example, any white light can be matched by a mixture of two narrow‐band lights, a yellow plus a blue. In this extreme case, reds and greens become black or brown and the red‐green dimension is lost. At the other extreme, a light with three narrow bands, at the proper wavelengths, can brighten reds and greens and increase red‐green contrast, relative to a broad‐band light such as daylight. Many commercial lights tend to dull reds and greens, relative to broad‐band sources, a central reason that color rendering is a practical concern. A telling example is neodymium glass, a yellow‐absorbing filter that is sometimes used to improve color rendering. This article seeks to bring these ideas to life through detailed graphical examples. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Three numerical methods are presented for finding the smoothest reflectance curve associated with a given triplet of tristimulus values. The methods differ in how “smooth” is defined, and also differ in the domain of colors over which they are applicable. The first method is very quick and applies to any tristimulus values, but sometimes can yield reflectance curves with portions that fall outside the range 0 to 1. The second method applies to colors within the spectral locus (real colors) and guarantees that the reflectances produced are positive. The third method applies to colors within the object color solid (object colors) and guarantees that the reflectances fall within the range 0 to 1. The methods are shown to create reflectances that closely resemble those of real colors (natural and synthetic). Focus is given to implementing the numerical methods in very short MATLAB/Octave functions and to understanding the numerical behavior of the methods near the limits of their respective domains of applicability in terms of matrix conditioning and discretization artifacts. 相似文献

Determining the correct color is essential for proper cultural heritage documentation and cataloging. However, the methodology used in most cases limits the results since it is based either on perceptual procedures or on the application of color profiles in digital processing software. The objective of this study is to establish a rigorous procedure, from the colorimetric point of view, for the characterization of cameras, following different polynomial models. Once the camera is characterized, users obtain output images in the sRGB space that is independent of the sensor of the camera. In this article we report on pyColorimetry software that was developed and tested taking into account the recommendations of the Commission Internationale de l'Éclairage (CIE). This software allows users to control the entire digital image processing and the colorimetric data workflow, including the rigorous processing of raw data. We applied the methodology on a picture targeting Levantine rock art motifs in Remigia Cave (Spain) that is considered part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Three polynomial models were tested for the transformation between color spaces. The outcomes obtained were satisfactory and promising, especially with RAW files. The best results were obtained with a second‐order polynomial model, achieving residuals below three CIELAB units. We highlight several factors that must be taken into account, such as the geometry of the shot and the light conditions, which are determining factors for the correct characterization of a digital camera. 相似文献

In this research we compare the colorimetric behavior of several observers. For color centers recommended by CIE we have produced large sets of spectral distributions, which are metameric for the CIE 1931 standard observer. For each one of the color centers, we compare the clouds of chromaticity coordinates with the chromaticity thresholds. We define a parameter that provides a quantitative measure of the interobserver variability. This parameter is used to arrange the observers by their degree of likeness. A similar procedure has been used to compare two real observers. It is shown how there is no reciprocity between the colorimetric behavior of two real observers. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Simulators of CIE Illuminants D65 and D75 are widely used for visually judging colors, but D50 simulators are used in photography and color printing. The CIE method of assessing the quality of daylight simulators provides sets of virtual metamers for assessing D55, D65, and D75 simulators, but does not provide them for D50. Data specifying sets of metamers for assessing the quality of D50 simulators are presented. They are based in part on data in a Japanese standard and in part on newly derived data. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 相似文献

In a text dating between 1259 and 1277, the Persian scholar al‐Tusi presented a systematic arrangement of 26 color terms. We propose a reconstruction of all color terms from al‐Tusi's scheme, in terms of preferred translation, mean CIEL*a*b* coordinates and digital representation. This reconstruction is based on a visual experiment with 30 subjects, who identified the Munsell chip best representing each color term. Persian words for which the meaning changed since the time of al‐Tusi were substituted by direct translations. The results show considerable interobserver variability in the colors selected when identifying color terms. This relatively large variation was shown to be a characteristic for memory matching experiments in general. Several specific color terms for which the resulting color variation was particularly large are discussed in more detail, and possible explanations for these variations are proposed. The proposed reconstruction suggests that al‐Tusi's list is largely consistent in modern colorimetric terms, although some large hue shifts are observed for color terms corresponding to green. We found no evidence for blue‐green (“grue”) confusion. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Col Res Appl, 41, 206–216, 2016 相似文献

A new method was used to characterize computer‐controlled liquid crystal displays (LCDs). The characterization, which was performed to enable colorimetric image display, included channel independence, spatial independence, screen uniformity, and colorimetry. The colorimetric model consisted of three one‐dimensional look‐up tables (LUTs) describing each channel's optoelectronic transfer function and a 3 × 4 matrix transformation that included black‐level flare. The matrix coefficients were estimated statistically by minimizing the average CIEDE2000 color difference for a data set sampling the display's colorimetric gamut. The LUTs were recreated dynamically throughout the optimization of the matrix coefficients. The characterization was implemented with three different instruments to evaluate the robustness of the method with respect to measurement uncertainty. The average performance ranged between 0.1 and 0.4 ΔE00 and was well correlated with instrument precision. The optimization approach improved performance by a factor of two compared with direct measurements. Despite differences in instrument design, the chromaticities of each primary following optimization and black‐level flare compensation were very similar. This excellent performance was a result of the display's optoelectronic properties well matching the model assumptions. The technique was also used to characterize three additional LCD displays ranging in their matching of the model assumptions. In this case, performance worsened. For one display, more complex models would be required for colorimetric characterization. Finally, a colorimetric characterization based on measurements at the center of the display and perpendicular to the face was used to predict measurements at the edges and at different angles. The results indicated that characterizations would be required at multiple positions and angles in order to achieve sufficient accuracy. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Accurate colorimetry starts with accurate color matching functions (CMFs). Due to changes in the macular pigment and cone pigment optical densities at different retinal locations, different CMFs are required for different stimulus field sizes. To characterize the accuracy of the CIE recommendation for the use of 2° and 10° standard CMFs and the field-size dependent CIEPO06 model, in this study, a series of achromatic matching experiments were performed with 2°, 4°, 6°, 8°, and 10° bipartite fields using spectrally narrowband primaries. Using the CIEPO06 model, optimal field sizes were estimated that minimize the chromaticity differences between the spectrally narrowband observer matches and the spectrally broadband achromatic target. It was found that the optimal field size estimated using the CIEPO06 model is close to half the actual bipartite field size in most cases, except for the 2° field. The discrepancy between the 10° bipartite field in Stiles & Burch's experiments and our optimal field size (6.54°) was assumed to be due to different individual color comparison strategies. However, the results of experiments requiring specific observer gaze positions did not support this assumption and the reason for the discrepancy remains unclear. Confirming our earlier results, the primary set (636, 521, 447 nm) was again found to be largely insensitive to changes in CMFs and to provide the most accurate matches under various fields of view. The inter- and intra-observer variability ellipses for 2° matches are larger than those for 10°, consistent with Brown's finding for color discrimination ellipses. The magnitude of the intraobserver variability was similar for all field sizes, except for 2° field size, where matching errors were larger for some primary sets. 相似文献

Over time, much work has been carried out to ascertain the validity of Grassmann's laws, Abney's law, CIE standard color‐matching functions and, up to now, no definitive answer has been given. Some of the phenomena subject of this debate are considered. An apparatus for color matching in 1.8° visual field has been realized with two sets of primary lights with broad spectral bands. This kind of primaries is the great difference with respect to other laboratories because it allows an indirect check of the Grassmann additivity law on the basis of the spectra and individual color‐matching functions by evaluating: (1) the tristimulus values of the primary lights; (2) the transformation matrices between the two reference frames defined by the two primary sets; and (3) the tristimulus values associated to all the pairs of matching lights in the bipartite field produced in the evaluation of the two sets of color‐matching function. The discrepancies of the data resulting in the check (1) and (2) are all compatible with the range defined by the uncertainty propagation of the individual color‐matching functions. In the check (3) fifteen tristimulus values over 18 have a discrepancy lower than one standard uncertainty. Grassmann's proportionality law is checked directly by reducing the matching lights with a neutral filter and holds true. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Col Res Appl, 33, 271–281, 2008. 相似文献

This publication describes a work related to the French language, for assigning a color name to an object whose colorimetric characteristics have been measured. This is the subject of a recently published book. The work is the result of an old publication by Afnor, the French standardization organization, work unfortunately obsolete by its colorimetric part. This publication describes the work that has been done to update it and make it convenient to use. The present text, by publishing some of the tables and graphs of the French book, presents the work done in French by a method that differs from that used by Kelly and Judd years ago. 相似文献

Sets of color tiles are available from the National Institute of Standards and Technology calibrated using the NIST 0:45 Reflectometer. The uncertainties associated with the measured values for the color tiles are an indispensable component of the calibration report that accompanies these tiles. A systematic, analytical approach developed previously was applied to the particular case of the reference instrument and color tile set, taking into account the operation and characteristics of the instrument and the spectral properties of the set. The primary sources of uncertainty were identified, and the resulting uncertainties in the color space values L*, a*, and b* were determined. In general, the uncertainties are lowest for those color tiles whose reflectance factors are nearly constant with wavelength. Published in 2008 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

The primary goal of a color characterization model is to establish a mapping from digital input values di (i = R,G,B) to tristimulus values such as XYZ. A good characterization model should be fast, use a small amount of data, and allow for backward mapping from tristimulus to di. The characterization models considered here are for the case of an end user who has no direct knowledge of the internal properties of the display device or its device driver. Three characterization models tested on seven different display devices are presented. The characterization models implemented in this study are a 3D look up table (LUT) (Raja Balasubramanian, Reducing the Cost of Lookup Table Based Color Transformations, Proc IS&T/SID 7th Color Imaging Conference 1 ), a linear model (Fairchild MD, Wyble DR. Colorimetric Characterization of the Apple Studio Display (Flat Panel LCD). Munsell Color Science Laboratory Technical Report, 1998), and the masking model (Tamura N, Tsumura N, Miyake. Masking Model for accurate colorimetric characterization of LCD. Proc IS&T/SID 10th Color Imaging Conference 3 ). The devices include two CRT monitors, three LCD monitors, and two LCD projectors. The results of this study indicate that a simple linear model is the most effective and efficient for all devices used in the study. A simple extension to the linear model is presented, and it is demonstrated that this extension improves white prediction without causing significant errors for other colors. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Since the adoption of the color spaces CIELAB and CIELUV by the CIE in 1976, several other uniform spaces have been developed. We studied most of these spaces and evaluated their uniformity for small as well as larger color differences. Therefore, several criteria have been defined based on color discrimination data and appearance systems. The main difference between color spaces based on discrimination data and spaces that model appearance systems is reflected in a different size of the chroma distance unit compared with the lightness unit. If spaces based on the same kind of data (discrimination data or appearance systems) are compared with each other, they are all almost equally uniform. BFD (l:c), for example, is said to be more uniform than CMC(l:c), but, based on confidence intervals of 65%, there is no significant difference between them. If the proposed color difference formula of the CIE is compared with these distance functions, it also performs equally well. The SVF space and OSA 90 space on the other hand should be better than OSA 74. However, as opposed to what was expected, OSA 74 is slightly better; but, also in this case, the difference between the spaces is insignificant. 相似文献

When displaying art, several criteria must be balanced when designing illumination including the artist's intention, damage, energy efficiency, viewing experience and understanding, and for commercial galleries and sales. The most common lighting for art includes natural daylight and incandescent spotlights. Neither source is optimal for all criteria; thus there is considerable interest in the use of white‐light light‐emitting diode (LED) lighting. A feasibility study was conducted to address two questions. First, was it possible to design a three‐primary LED source that yielded the same color rendering as common museum lighting? Second, could one design the lighting to achieve specific color appearance attributes? Three‐primary lights using a Gaussian function were optimized matching the chromaticity of D65 and minimizing color differences for a set of acrylic dispersion paints. The optimal wavelengths depended on bandwidth. Lights were also optimized that either maximized or minimized average chroma. A set of real LEDs was selected that produced similar results when evaluated computationally. A source that increases chroma may be useful when used to illuminate works of art with high light sensitivity: very low illuminances are necessary and such a source will compensate for the reduction of colorfulness and visual clarity. A source that decreases chroma may be used to render art in similar fashion to low‐light conditions such as churches and caves. In general, white LED lighting is advantageous for art conservation because they do not emit UV and IR radiation and their visible radiation is reduced when compared with their continuous spectrum equivalent. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

What is perhaps the first color specification system, developed in 1677 by the eminent English physician Francis Glisson, is described. Two of the scales for which Glisson provided quantitative data Glisson have been reconstructed: the gray scale in virtual form and the red scale in real form. Reflectance calculations or measurements and calculations of CIELAB L*a*b* values indicate that the two scales have a significant degree of uniformity despite the simple method used by Glisson to construct them. © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
