One subjective and two objective methods were used to determine the color of reconsti tuted frozen concentrated orange juice. The USDA color scores for 21 samples ranged from 32 to 37 points when this subjective method was used. Two objective methods were used: (a) the Hunter Color and Color Difference Meter to ob tain tristimulus color values and (b) the Bausch and Lomb Spectronic 505 recordin...

Reflectance spectrophotometry potentially provides a rapid method of investigating the changing characteristics and composition of marine sediments. Recognizing this, the Ocean Drilling Program has permanently deployed a commercially available, handheld spectrophotometer, the Minolta CM-2002, aboard the JOIDES Resolution. The present study evaluated shipboard spectral data obtained from Amazon ...

combine multiple cues, such as color, texture, shape, and layout, frequently without user interaction. These include We describe a system which automatically annotates images with a set of prespecified keywords, based on supervised color IBM’s Query-by-Image-Content (QBIC) [10], MIT’s Phoclassification of pixels into N prespecified classes using simple tobook [11], the Trademark and Art Museum ...

The primary goal of a color characterization model is to establish a mapping from digital input values di (i R,G,B) to tristimulus values such as XYZ. A good characterization model should be fast, use a small amount of data, and allow for backward mapping from tristimulus to di. The characterization models considered here are for the case of an end user who has no direct knowledge of the intern...

Some experimental and theoretical approaches to surface-colour perception depend on approximating surface reflectance spectra by low-dimensional models. In the psychophysical experiment reported here, observers had to discriminate between patterns of Munsell surfaces and their spectral approximations under either the same or different illuminants. The approximations were produced by principal c...

This paper employs uniform color space to analyze relations in dichromacy (protanopia, deuteranopia, tritanopia). Fifty percent or less of dichromats represent the classical reduction form of trichromacy, where one of three cones is inoperative but normal trichromatic color mixture such as complementary colors (pairs that mix white) are accepted by the dichromat, whose data can thus be plotted ...

PURPOSE The purpose of this study is to assess color vision abnormalities in a cohort of subjects with type II diabetes and elucidate associated risk factors. METHODS Subjects were recruited from follow-up cohort of Sankara Nethralaya Diabetic Retinopathy Epidemiology and Molecular Genetics Study I. Six hundred and seventy-three eyes of 343 subjects were included from this population-based st...

Each hue is believed to be made up of the four component hues (yellow, blue, red, and green). A hue consisting of just one component hue is called unitary (or unique). A new technique--partial hue-matching--has been used to reveal the component and unitary hues for a sample of 32 Munsell papers, which were illuminated by neutral, yellow, blue, green, and red lights and assessed by four normal t...
