For decades powerful digital image editing software makes image modifi cations straightforward. In this paper analyze one of the most common form of photographic manipulation is known as Image Composition or Splicing. For that purpose a forgery detection method is used to exploits subtle inconsistencies in the color of the illumination of images. The technique (Machine Learning) is applicable t...

Color constancy is something we take for granted. An apple appears red despite monumental changes in the intensity and spectral balance of illumination. There are many components to human visual system that make this illusion possible. Nonetheless, imperfect. Objects will change apparent color under different The CIELAB space allows computation values any illuminant. will, general, as illuminan...

Color constancy aims to compute object colors despite differences in the color of the light source. Gamut-based approaches are very promising methods to achieve color constancy. In this paper, the gamut mapping approach is extended to incorporate higher-order statistics (derivatives) to estimate the illuminant. A major problem of gamut mapping is that in case of a failure of the diagonal model ...

The chromatic appearance of a surface depends on its surrounding scene. A variety of mechanisms have been proposed to account for such phenomena, ranging from low-level gain control or adaptation processes that adjust for such properties as a scene's chromatic mean and covariance structure, to higher-level computations that compensate for the chromatic content of the illuminant. Despite their d...

A fundamental problem in psychophysical experiments is that significant conclusions are hard to draw due to the complex experimental environment necessary to examine color constancy. An alternative approach to reveal the mechanisms involved in color constancy is by modeling the physical process of spectral image formation. In this paper, we aim at a physical basis for color constancy rather tha...

A well known property of human vision, known as color constancy, is the ability to correct for color deviations caused by a difference in illumination. A common approach to investigate color constant behavior is by psychophysical experiments, regarding the human visual system as a black box responding to a well defined change in an laboratory setup. A fundamental problem in psychophysical exper...

As images can fetch more information than words, most of the people are dependent on them for communication and use them as powerful evidence in courts and media companies. Nowadays, however, advanced image processing tools and graphical editing techniques makes it easier to edit and modify the digital image. This diminishes our trust in photographs and objects pictures as evidence for real wor...

Relational color constancy refers to the constancy of the perceived relations between the colors of surfaces of a scene under changes in the spectral composition of the illuminant. Spatial ratios of cone excitations provide a natural physical basis for this constancy, as, on average, they are almost invariant under illuminant changes for large collections of natural surfaces and illuminants. Th...

Logvinenko’s color atlas theory provides a structure in which a complete set of color-equivalent material and illumination pairs can be generated to match any given input RGB color. In chromaticity space, the set of such pairs forms a 2-dimensional manifold embedded in a 4-dimensional space. For singleilluminant scenes, the illumination for different input RGB values must be contained in all th...
