چکیده

Non-negative matrix factorization (NMF, Nature 401 (1999) 788-791) is a method to derive non-negative basis functions for sets of data that are inherently non-negative, such as color spectra. We applied NMF to Munsell color spectra and investigated the color names associated with the non-negative basis functions. NMF yields basis functions compatible with established color naming categories.

A model for the simultaneous analysis of reflectance spectra and basis factors of Munsell color samples under D65 illumination in three-dimensional Euclidean space.

In this paper we present the results of an analysis of the physically measured surface reflectance spectra of 360 matte Munsell chromatic color chips plus 10 flat achromatic vectors corresponding to Munsell value levels 10 (white) to 1 (near black) for a total sample size of 370. Each of the 370 spectra was multiplied by the spectral radiant power distribution of D65 light so that the final res...

Relating reflectance spectra space to Munsell color appearance space.

The goal is to construct a simple model relating the conceptually defined Munsell color space to a physical representation of the relationship among the reflectance spectra obtained from the color chips comprising the Munsell color atlas. In the model both the Munsell conceptual system and the transformed reflectance spectra are shown to be well represented in Euclidean space, and the two space...

Iterative Weighted Non-smooth Non-negative Matrix Factorization for Face Recognition

Non-negative Matrix Factorization (NMF) is a part-based image representation method. It comes from the intuitive idea that entire face image can be constructed by combining several parts. In this paper, we propose a framework for face recognition by finding localized, part-based representations, denoted “Iterative weighted non-smooth non-negative matrix factorization” (IWNS-NMF). A new cost fun...

A quantitative model for transforming reflectance spectra into the Munsell color space using cone sensitivity functions and opponent process weights.

This article presents a computational model of the process through which the human visual system transforms reflectance spectra into perceptions of color. Using physical reflectance spectra data and standard human cone sensitivity functions we describe the transformations necessary for predicting the location of colors in the Munsell color space. These transformations include quantitative estim...

Transforming reflectance spectra into Munsell color space by using prime colors.

Independent researchers have proved mathematically that, given a set of color-matching functions, there exists a unique set of three monochromatic spectral lights that optimizes luminous efficiency and color gamut. These lights are called prime colors. We present a method for transforming reflectance spectra into Munsell color space by using hypothetical absorbance curves based on Gaussian appr...
