Panel tests of color vision (eg FM100-Hue test) lack a common quantitative method for the scoring of cap arrangements. We describe a scoring method applicable to all panel tests that makes use of a novel technique to analyze test cap data, namely the calculation of a moment of inertia from the Color Difference Vectors (CDVs) of any arrangement pattern. Using the Farnsworth D-15 panel, as an exa...

Chromatic thresholds were measured using the Cambridge Colour Test (CCT), the Colour Assessment and Diagnosis (CAD) test, and the Cone Specific Contrast Test (CSCT) at ground and 3780 m (12,400 ft) for subjects with normal color vision and red-green color vision defects. The CAD revealed a small (~10%) increase in the red-green thresholds for the trichromatic subjects and a similar increase in ...

A novel approach of Content Based Image Retrieval(CBIR), which combines color, texture and shape descriptors to represent the features of the image, is discussed in this paper. The proposed scheme is based on three noticeable algorithms: color distribution entropy(CDE), color level co-occurrence(CLCM) and invariant moments. CDE takes the correlation of the color spatial distribution in an image...

Certain alteration minerals are used to identify the hydrothermally altered rocks. In volcanic rocks, mainly potassic, phyllic (sericitic), propylitic, argillic alteration and silicification are observed. The role of remote sensing in alteration mapping is the differentiation of the minerals that are unique for different alteration types. In this study, Landsat TM 5 images are used. General alt...

This functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) study investigated high and low suggestible people responding to two visual hallucination suggestions with and without a hypnotic induction. Participants in the study were asked to see color while looking at a grey image, and to see shades of grey while looking at a color image. High suggestible participants reported successful alterations in co...

We describe two new color indexing techniques. The rst one is a more robust version of the commonly used color histogram indexing. In the index we store the cumulative color histograms. The L 1-, L 2-, or L 1-distance between two cumulative color histograms can be used to deene a similarity measure of these two color distributions. We show that while this method produces only slightly better re...

From a set of gonioapparent automotive samples from different manufacturers we selected 28 low-chroma color pairs with relatively small color differences predominantly in lightness. These color pairs were visually assessed with a gray scale at six different viewing angles by a panel of 10 observers. Using the Standardized Residual Sum of Squares (STRESS) index, the results of our visual experim...

Color vector quantization (VQ) has been an efficient still image compression scheme as well as a popular bihnap graphics format for display devices with limited color capability. In this paper we are proposing a color vector quantization-based video coder, exploiting the temporal stationaty nature of color distribution among a group of pictures (GOP) over a short period. Color VQ is applied fir...
