Evaluating colour models' performance between monitor and print images

Abstract

The earlier experimental results (Color Res. Appl. 16, 166–180, 181–197; 18, 98–113, 191–209; 20, 18–28) have been further extended to include data obtained using complex images. Binocular memory and simultaneous matching techniques were used to assess the colour reproduction quality of displayed monitor images processed via eight colour models against a hardcopy (original) image illuminated in a viewing cabinet. The results from a panel of nine observers were used to compare different colour models' performance. It was found that the BFD chromatic adaptation transform outperformed the other models. The Hunt94 model, which gave a good fit to the earlier results, did not perform well. This indicates that there are differences in colour appearance between the complex and simple viewing fields. Other aspects were also investigated such as observer precision and repeatability, spatial uniformity of the monitor, image dependency, and the difference between the category judgment and paired comparison results. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Reproducing room appearance on displays

“…It was also found that there was no significant difference between different observers or between the repeated results of each observer. These degrees of variation are similar to those of similar studies.…”

42.5: Cross Media Colour Reproduction of Real Lighting Environment Using CIECAM02

“…Many psychophysical experiments were conducted and the results were used to derive colour appearance model, for example, corresponding colours and LUTCHI datasets, including simple patches and simple images [6]. But whether results are suitable when applied to render a real scene and how to set the parameters are still inconclusive.…”

Investigation of colour appearance models for illumination changes across media

“…Its aim was to gather as much data from as many different sources as possible for the evaluation of these colorimetric and colour appearance models used to create visual matches for selfluminous display (soft copy) and reflection print (hard copy) image comparisons. Lo et al 7 and Braun and Fairchild 8 conducted experiments following the guidelines 9 set forth by the committee. However, the results were still inconclusive.…”

“…In addition, there is also an urgent need to test the performance for the new CIE colour appearance model, CIECMA97s, 5 which was not included in the earlier studies. 7,8 Hence, new experiments were conducted and the results are described in this article.…”
