Fast Surface Grading Using Color Statistics in the CIE Lab Space
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we approach the problem of fast surface grading of flat pieces decorated with random patterns. The proposed method is based on the use of global statistics of color computed in the CIE Lab space. Two other fast methods based on color histograms [1] and Centile-LBP features [8] are introduced for comparison purposes. We used CIE Lab in order to provide accuracy and perceptual approach in color difference computation. Experiments with RGB were also carried out to study CIE Lab reliability. The ground truth was provided through an image database of ceramic tiles. Nevertheless, the approach is suitable to be extended to other random decorated surfaces like marble, granite, wood or textile stuff. The experiments make us to conclude that a simple collection of global statistics of color in the CIE Lab space is powerful enough to well discriminate surface grades. The average success surpasses 95% in most of the tests, improving literature methods and achieving factory compliance. 3

Multivariate statistical projection methods to perform robust feature extraction and classification in surface grading
bstract. We present an innovative way to simultaneously perform eature extraction and classification for the quality-control issue of urface grading by applying two multivariate statistical projection ethods: SIMCA and PLS-DA. These tools have been applied to ompress the color texture data that describe the visual appearance f surfaces (soft color texture descriptors) and to directly perform la...

This paper presents a novel approach to the question of surface grading, the soft color texture descriptors method. This method is extracted from an extensive evaluation process of several factors based on the use of two well established statistical tools: experimental design and logistic regression. The utility of different combinations of factors is evaluated in regard to the problem of autom...

In Iranian architecture, colors were a powerful tool in design that, by using them correctly in decorations, added to the identity and impact of that space. One of the techniques of architects in decorating the space has been the use of complementary colors to create a proper harmony in the viewer's eyes. In this experimental-analytical study, CIE Lab analysis was used to quantitatively measu...
متن کاملA Geometric Foundation of Colorimetry
The physical properties of color are usually described by their spectra, eigenvector expansions or low-dimensional descriptors such as RGB or CIE-Lab. In the first part of the paper we show that many of the traditional methods can be unified in a framework where color spectra are elements of an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space that are described by projections onto low-dimensional spaces. We ...

In this paper, we developed a novel approach that provides effective and robust segmentation of color images. It preprocesses an image by converting color information from RGB to CIE L*a*b* color spaces that CIE L*a*b* color spaces can express color in a device-independent way. CIE L*a*b* color space is better suited to digital image manipulations than the RGB space, because it had removed corr...
