  • COLOR SPACE MODELS for VIDEO and CHROMA SUBSAMPLING
    COLOR SPACE MODELS for VIDEO and CHROMA SUBSAMPLING Color space A color model is an abstract mathematical model describing the way colors can be represented as tuples of numbers, typically as three or four values or color components (e.g. RGB and CMYK are color models). However, a color model with no associated mapping function to an absolute color space is a more or less arbitrary color system with little connection to the requirements of any given application. Adding a certain mapping function between the color model and a certain reference color space results in a definite "footprint" within the reference color space. This "footprint" is known as a gamut, and, in combination with the color model, defines a new color space. For example, Adobe RGB and sRGB are two different absolute color spaces, both based on the RGB model. In the most generic sense of the definition above, color spaces can be defined without the use of a color model. These spaces, such as Pantone, are in effect a given set of names or numbers which are defined by the existence of a corresponding set of physical color swatches. This article focuses on the mathematical model concept. Understanding the concept Most people have heard that a wide range of colors can be created by the primary colors red, blue, and yellow, if working with paints. Those colors then define a color space. We can specify the amount of red color as the X axis, the amount of blue as the Y axis, and the amount of yellow as the Z axis, giving us a three-dimensional space, wherein every possible color has a unique position.

CIE xyY, the horseshoe diagram as shown below, is a perspective projection of XYZ coordinates onto a plane xy. The luminance is missing. CIELab is a nonlinear transformation of XYZ into coordinates L*,a*,b*. The gamut for any RGB color system is a triangle in the CIE xyY chromaticity diagram, here shown for the CIE primaries, the NTSC primaries, the Rec.709 primaries (which are also valid for sRGB and therefore for many PC monitors) and the non-physical working space ProPhotoRGB. The white points are individually defined for the color spaces. The CIELab color space was intended for equal perceptual differences for equal chan- ges in the coordinates L*,a* and b*. Color differences deltaE are defined as Euclidian distances in CIELab. This document shows color charts in CIELab for several RGB color spaces.

Therefore, it is required to reproduce color independently on each imaging device. In the studies of device independent color reproduction, colorimetric color reproduction has been done, namely color with same chromaticity or tristimulus values is reproduced. However, even if the tristimulus values are the same, color appearance is not always same under different viewing conditions.

  • Spectral Primary Decomposition for Rendering with RGB Reflectance
    Eurographics Symposium on Rendering (DL-only Track) (2019) T. Boubekeur and P. Sen (Editors) Spectral Primary Decomposition for Rendering with sRGB Reflectance Ian Mallett1 and Cem Yuksel1 1University of Utah Ground Truth Our Method Meng et al. 2015 D65 Environment 35 Error (Noise & Imprecision) Error (Color Distortion) E D CIE76 0:0 Lambertian Plane Figure 1: Spectral rendering of a texture containing the entire sRGB gamut as the Lambertian albedo for a plane under a D65 environment. In this configuration, ideally, rendered sRGB pixels should match the texture’s values. Prior work by Meng et al. [MSHD15] produces noticeable color distortion, whereas our method produces no error beyond numerical precision and Monte Carlo sampling noise (the magnitude of the DE induced by this noise varies with the image because sRGB is perceptually nonlinear). Contemporary work [JH19] is also nearly able to achieve this, but at a significant implementation and memory cost. Abstract Spectral renderers, as-compared to RGB renderers, are able to simulate light transport that is closer to reality, capturing light behavior that is impossible to simulate with any three-primary decomposition. However, spectral rendering requires spectral scene data (e.g. textures and material properties), which is not widely available, severely limiting the practicality of spectral rendering. Unfortunately, producing a physically valid reflectance spectrum from a given sRGB triple has been a challenging problem, and indeed until very recently constructing a spectrum without colorimetric round-trip error was thought to be impos- sible. In this paper, we introduce a new procedure for efficiently generating a reflectance spectrum from any given sRGB input data.
