The four-flux model is a method to solve light radiative-transfer problems in planar, possibly multilayer structures. The light fluxes are modeled as two collimated and two diffuse beams propagating forward and backward perpendicularly to the layer stack. ...
Spectral prediction models for halftone prints generally assume homogeneously thick and sharply edged ink dots, i.e., bilevel halftones. In real prints, the ink thickness often decreases at the boundaries of the ink dots, thereby forming continuous-level h ...
The transmittance spectrum of halftone prints on paper is predicted thanks to a model inspired by the Yule-Nielsen modified spectral Neugebauer model used for reflectance predictions. This model is well adapted for semi-opaque printing supports and applica ...
This paper provides a theoretical connection between two different mathematical models dedicated to the reflectance and the transmittance of diffusing layers. The Kubelka–Munk model proposes a continuous description of scattering and absorption for two opp ...
The present paper investigates the reflection and transmission properties of piles of nonscattering sheets. Using a spectral prediction model, we perform a detailed analysis of the spectral and color variations induced by variations of the number of superp ...
By printing a variable number of droplets onto the same pixel location, ink jet printers produce pixels at variable dot-sizes yielding several darkness levels. Varying the number of printed droplets affects the ink volume deposited onto the substrate. In t ...
We propose a compositional model for predicting the reflectance and the transmittance of multilayer specimens composed of layers having possibly distinct refractive indices. The model relies on the laws of geometrical optics and on a description of the mul ...
The color of prints is mainly determined by the light absorption of the inks deposited on top of paper. In order to predict the reflectance spectrum of prints, we use a spectral prediction model in which each ink is characterized by its spectral transmitta ...
We extend a previously proposed spectral reflectance and transmittance prediction model for recto-verso prints to the case of multi-ink halftones. The model takes into account the multiple reflections and the lateral propagation of light within the paper s ...
The Yule–Nielsen modified spectral Neugebauer model (YNSN) enhanced for accounting for ink spreading in the different ink superposition conditions provides accurate spectral predictions, but requires one to measure the reflectances of special halftone cali ...
