The mechanisms by which the brain represents colors are largely unknown. In addition, the large number of color phenomena in the natural world has made understanding color rather difficult. Color transparency perception, which is studied in this thesis, is ...
We present methods to estimate perceptual uniformity of color spaces and to derive a perceptually uniform RGB space using geometrical criteria defined in a logarithmic opponent color representation. ...
Human visual perception is a fundamentally relational process: Lightness perception depends on luminance ratios, and depth perception depends on occlusion (difference of depth) cues. Neurons in low-level visual cortex are sensitive to the difference (but n ...
We study the influence of the choice of color space for local tone mapping methods. Many local tone mapping methods do not perform well when applied independently to the three color channels of an RGB image. A common solution is to only treat the luminance ...
The spectral properties of chromatic detection mechanisms were investigated using a noise-masking paradigm. Contrast detection thresholds were measured for a signal with a Gaussian spatial profile, modulated in the equiluminant plane in the presence of spa ...
The color-appearance model CIECAM02 has several problems, which can result in mathematical instabilities, due to the relation of the chromatic-adaptation primaries to the spectrum locus and to the presumed physiological cone primaries. To keep a correspond ...
The colors in a digital image do not only depend on the scene's reflectances, but also on the lighting conditions and on the characteristics of the imaging device. It is often necessary to separate the influence of these three elements, in particular to se ...
A display system comprising a reflective display configured to display a luminance component associated with a color input signal and a projector configured to project a chrominance component associated with the color input signal onto the reflective displ ...
We tested whether motion and configural complexity affect perceived transparency. A series of five coherent chromatic transformations in color space was applied across a figure: translation, convergence, shear, divergence and rotation. The stimuli consiste ...
Dynamic textures are sequences of images showing temporal regularity. Examples can be found in videos representing smoke, flames, ocean waves, wind-shaken forests, etc. Dynamic texture modelling and synthesis has usually been done considering RGB color ima ...
