Measuring Human Skin Colour
نویسندگان
چکیده
Human skin colour measurements from four ethnic groups including 188 subjects were accumulated. Five to ten locations of each subject were measured by using two different instruments, a tele-spectroradiometer and a spectrophotometer. Three repeated measurements were accumulated for each location. Repeatability of the measurements at different locations from different ethnicities was examined using the mean CIELAB colour difference from the mean (MCDM). The colour distribution between different locations of different ethnic groups was also studied by plotting the data in ab and LCab planes. Systematic trends were found between different ethnicities and instruments.

Do all human skin colours lie on a defined surface within LMS space?
A model of colour formation within human skin has been developed to aid the characterisation of pigmented skin lesions from their digitized colour images. The model is based on the Kublenka–Munk theory of scattering and absorption within inhomogeneous materials and the physics pertaining to their colour properties. By considering the skin to be a layered construction of such materials, the stra...

متن کاملMelanin and blood concentration in a human skin model studied by multiple regression analysis: assessment by Monte Carlo simulation.
Measurement of melanin and blood concentration in human skin is needed in the medical and the cosmetic fields because human skin colour is mainly determined by the colours of melanin and blood. It is difficult to measure these concentrations in human skin because skin has a multi-layered structure and scatters light strongly throughout the visible spectrum. The Monte Carlo simulation currently ...
متن کاملMeasurement and perception of skin colour in a skin cancer survey.
A population-based prevalence survey of skin cancer was conducted in Nambour, Queensland, in 1986. The skin colour of 807 participants was assessed in three ways: quantitatively, graded by a dermatologist, and self-reported. Quantitation of skin pigmentation was obtained by measuring the reflectance of light of wavelength 650 nm, at six sites. Females showed higher mean reflectance (paler skin)...

In this study, we have investigated the effects of mix of Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) & Carrot) Daucus carota ( and red Bell pepper )Capsicum annuum( as a natural pigment source and astaxanthin as synthetic pigment sources on the skin colour of cichlid fish (Astronotus ocellatus sp., Agassiz, 1831), which are generally white with red patches in the dorsal skin. The fish were fed diets contain...
