Book description
In this book the authors identify the basic concepts and recent
advances in the acquisition, perception, coding and rendering of
color. The fundamental aspects related to the science of colorimetry
in relation to physiology (the human visual system) are addressed, as
are constancy and color appearance. It also addresses the more
technical aspects related to sensors and the color management screen.
Particular attention is paid to the notion of color rendering in
computer graphics. Beyond color, the authors also look at coding,
compression, protection and quality of color images and
videos.
Individual chapters focus on the LMS specification, color
constancy, color appearance models, rendering in synthetic image
generation, image sensor technologies, image compression, and quality
and secure color imaging. Ideal for researchers, engineers, Master's
and PhD students, Digital Color: Acquisition, Perception, Encoding and
Rendering offers a state of the art on all the scientific and
technical issues raised by the different stages of the digital color
process - acquisition, analysis and processing.
