Applying CIECAM02 for Mobile Display Viewing Conditions
Applying CIECAM02 for Mobile Display Viewing Conditions YungKyung Park*, ChangJun Li*, M. R. Luo*, Youngshin Kwak**, Du-Sik Park **, and Changyeong Kim**; * University of Leeds, Colour Imaging Lab, UK*, ** Samsung Advanced Institute of Technology, Yongin, South Korea** Abstract Small displays are widely used for mobile phones, PDA and 0.7 Portable DVD players. They are small to be carried around and 0.6 viewed under various surround conditions. An experiment was carried out to accumulate colour appearance data on a 2 inch 0.5 mobile phone display, a 4 inch PDA display and a 7 inch LCD 0.4 display using the magnitude estimation method. It was divided into v' 12 experimental phases according to four surround conditions 0.3 (dark, dim, average, and bright). The visual results in terms of 0.2 lightness, colourfulness, brightness and hue from different phases were used to test and refine the CIE colour appearance model, 0.1 CIECAM02 [1]. The refined model is based on continuous 0 functions to calculate different surround parameters for mobile 0 0.1 0.2 0.3 0.4 0.5 0.6 0.7 displays. There was a large improvement of the model u' performance, especially for bright surround condition. Figure 1. The colour gamut of the three displays studied. Introduction Many previous colour appearance studies were carried out using household TV or PC displays viewed under rather restricted viewing conditions. In practice, the colour appearance of mobile displays is affected by a variety of viewing conditions. First of all, the display size is much smaller than the other displays as it is built to be carried around easily. -
Computational Color Harmony Based on Coloroid System

Abstract This paper presents experimentally based rules and methods for the creation of harmonic color sets. First, dichro- matic rules are presented which concern the harmony relationships of two hues. For an arbitrarily given hue pair, we define the just harmonic saturation values, resulting in minimally harmonic color pairs. These values express the fuzzy border between harmony and disharmony regions using a single scalar. Second, the value of harmony is defined corresponding to the contrast of lightness, i.e. the difference of perceptual lightness values. Third, we formulate the harmony value of the saturation contrast, depending on hue and lightness. The results of these investigations form a basis for a unified, coherent dichromatic harmony formula as well as for analysis of polychromatic color harmony. Introduced color harmony rules are based on Coloroid, which is one of the 5 6 main color-order systems and − furthermore it is an aesthetically uniform continuous color space. -

Abstract: Visual and olfactory floral signals play key roles in plant-pollinator interactions. In recent decades, studies investigating the evolution of either of these signals have increased considerably. However, there are large gaps in our understanding of whether or not these two cue modalities evolve in a concerted manner. Here, we characterized the visual (i.e., color) and olfactory (scent) floral cues in bee-pollinated Campanula species by spectrophotometric and chemical methods, respectively, with Citation: Milet-Pinheiro, P.; Santos, the aim of tracing their evolutionary paths.

For centuries, females have been attracted to the use of color. In Abstract the 1930’s, Korda et al.

Yevonda, in the 1930s, stated that trends, and various different ways to change/enhance physical women were more attached to the use of color photography than were aesthetics. Predicting color preferences and how colors and color men as the medium was better able to highlight visible signs of the combinations, in a shape context, stimulate certain emotions, times, such as red hair, uniforms, flawless complexions and cosmetic represents a challenging prospect. Color is a critical cue for sexual combinations (lips and colored finger nails) [8]. Such use allowed signaling, but what the preferred colors actually are in humans, is females to express themselves more fully [8]. -
Trapping Drosophila Repleta (Diptera: Drosophilidae) Using Color and Volatiles B
Trapping Drosophila repleta (Diptera: Drosophilidae) using color and volatiles B. A. Hottel1,*, J. L. Spencer1 and S. T. Ratcliffe3 Abstract Color and volatile stimulus preferences of Drosophila repleta (Patterson) Diptera: Drosophilidae), a nuisance pest of swine and poultry facilities, were tested using sticky card and bottle traps. Attractions to red, yellow, blue, orange, green, purple, black, grey and a white-on-black contrast treatment were tested in the laboratory. Drosophila repleta preferred red over yellow and white but not over blue. Other than showing preferences over the white con- trol, D. repleta was not observed to have preferences between other colors and shade combinations. Pinot Noir red wine, apple cider vinegar, and wet swine feed were used in volatile preference field trials. Red wine was more attractiveD. to repleta than the other volatiles tested, but there were no dif- ferences in response to combinations of a red wine volatile lure and various colors. Odor was found to play the primary role in attracting D. repleta.

The aim of the present study was to evaluate the visual color perception of liquid samples among Finnish adult consumers by their background variables. Participants (n = 205) ranked six different colored solutions just by looking according to four attributes: from most to least pleasant, healthy, sweet and sour. The color sample rated most frequently as the most pleasant was red (37%), the most healthy white (57%), the most sweet red and orange (34% both) and the most sour yellow (54%). Ratings of certain colors differed between gender, age, body mass index (BMI) and education groups. Females regarded the red color as the sweetest more often than males (p = 0.013) while overweight subjects rated the orange as the sweetest more often than normal weight subjects (p = 0.029). Personal characteristics may be associated with some differences in color associations. Keywords: color; visual; taste; perception; gender 1. -

Differences in Color Categorization Manifested by Males and Females: a Quantitative World Color Survey Study
ARTICLE https://doi.org/10.1057/s41599-019-0341-7 OPEN Differences in color categorization manifested by males and females: a quantitative World Color Survey study Nicole A. Fider 1* & Natalia L. Komarova1* ABSTRACT Gender-related differences in human color preferences, color perception, and color lexicon have been reported in the literature over several decades. This work focuses on 1234567890():,; the way the two genders categorize color stimuli. Using the cross-cultural data from the World Color Survey (WCS) and rigorous mathematical methodology, a function is con- structed, which measures the differences in color categorization systems manifested by men and women. A significant number of cases are identified, where men and women exhibit markedly disparate behavior. Interestingly, of the regions in the Munsell color array, the green-blue (“grue”) region appears to be associated with the largest group of categorization differences, with females revealing a more differentiated color categorization pattern com- pared to males. More precisely, in those cases, females tend to use separate green and/or blue categories, while males predominantly use the grue category. In general, the cases singled out by our method warrant a closer study, as they may indicate a transitional cate- gorization scheme. 1 Mathematics Department, University of California, Irvine, Irvine, CA 92697-3875, USA. *email: nfi[email protected]; [email protected] PALGRAVE COMMUNICATIONS | (2019) 5:142 | https://doi.org/10.1057/s41599-019-0341-7 | www.nature.com/palcomms 1 ARTICLE PALGRAVE COMMUNICATIONS | https://doi.org/10.1057/s41599-019-0341-7 Introduction t has been asserted (and subsequently, studied for the past The studies reported above encompass a range of fields, from Iseveral decades) that languages have specific categorization physiology to psychology and linguistics. -
Chromatic Adaptation Transform by Spectral Reconstruction Scott A
Chromatic Adaptation Transform by Spectral Reconstruction Scott A. Burns, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, [email protected] February 28, 2019 Note to readers: This version of the paper is a preprint of a paper to appear in Color Research and Application in October 2019 (Citation: Burns SA. Chromatic adaptation transform by spectral reconstruction. Color Res Appl. 2019;44(5):682-693). The full text of the final version is available courtesy of Wiley Content Sharing initiative at: https://rdcu.be/bEZbD. The final published version differs substantially from the preprint shown here, as follows. The claims of negative tristimulus values being “failures” of a CAT are removed, since in some circumstances such as with “supersaturated” colors, it may be reasonable for a CAT to produce such results. The revised version simply states that in certain applications, tristimulus values outside the spectral locus or having negative values are undesirable. In these cases, the proposed method will guarantee that the destination colors will always be within the spectral locus. Abstract: A color appearance model (CAM) is an advanced colorimetric tool used to predict color appearance under a wide variety of viewing conditions. A chromatic adaptation transform (CAT) is an integral part of a CAM. Its role is to predict “corresponding colors,” that is, a pair of colors that have the same color appearance when viewed under different illuminants, after partial or full adaptation to each illuminant. Modern CATs perform well when applied to a limited range of illuminant pairs and a limited range of source (test) colors. However, they can fail if operated outside these ranges. -
Cultural Influence to the Color Preference According to Product Category
KEER2014, LINKÖPING | JUNE 11-13 2014 INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON KANSEI ENGINEERING AND EMOTION RESEARCH Cultural Influence to the Color Preference According to Product Category Kazuko Sakamoto Kyoto Institute of Technology, Japan, [email protected], Abstract: In this study, I focus on color, one of the factors involved in design. It has been assumed that color preference is affected by culture and geographical factors, and much international comparative research has been done on this issue. However, the conclusions vary widely, suggesting that it is difficult to generalize. Therefore, in addition to studying color preference itself, I investigated how basic stated color preference is correlated with specific color preference for commercial products. I analyzed how color preferences vary in different countries and product categories. I interviewed Japanese, Chinese Vietnam and Dutch students on their color preferences, and investigated the correlation between their basic color preference and their specific color preference for product categories such as clothes, cell phones, notebook computers, refrigerators, and vehicles. I found that Japanese participants tend to prefer dark colors. All of three nations other than China liked achromatic colors such as black and white for commercial products. By contrast, the color preferences of Chinese participants varied widely. The Chinese tend to have similar color preferences throughout product categories, whereas the Japanese, Vietnam and Dutch people showed different tendencies for different categories. Keywords: Color Preference, Product Category, International Comparison, Cultural Background 1. INTRODUCTION Thanks to the rapid progress of technology, the function and quality of home electronics have developed in a similar way worldwide. Therefore, many firms differentiate their products by form or color.
