From a 4-hypercube colour space, spaces of the type hue-saturation-luminance are derived. The hue component may have the topology of a 2-sphere, a 2-torus or a 3-sphere, in several possibilities we consider.

An innovative technique for segmentation of color images is proposed. The technique implements an approach based on thresholding of the hue histogram. A new function for detecting valleys of the histogram has been devised and tested. A novel blurring algorithm for noise reduction that works effectively when used over hue image, has been employed. A feed-forward neural network that learns to rec...

We have analyzed the properties of the HSV (Hue, Saturation and Value) color space With emphasis on the visual perception of the variation in Hue, Saturation and Intensity values of an image pixel. We extract pixel features by either choosing the Hue or the Intensity as the dominant property based on the Saturation value of a pixel. The feature extraction method has been applied for both image ...

An unsupervised algorithm for speaker’s lip segmentation is presented in this paper. A color video sequence of speaker’s face is acquired, under natural lighting conditions and without any particular make-up. First, a logarithmic color transform is performed from RGB to HI (hue, intensity) color space and sequence dependant parameters are evaluated. Second, a statistical approach using Markov r...

Purpose. To highlight the importance of using the Farnsworth Panel D-15 Hue test in colour vision testing in patients on ethambutol treatment. Case Report. A 70 year-old lady received ethambutol as part of her anti-tuberculous regime. She developed blue-yellow colour defect detectable with the Farnsworth Panel D-15 Hue test, but not with the Isihara Pseudoisochromatic Plates. Ethambutol was imm...

Observers viewed M- or L-cone-isolating stimuli and compared slowly-on and slowly-off sawtooth waveforms of the same mean chromaticity and luminance. Between 6 and 13 Hz, the mean hue of slowly-on L-cone and slowly-off M-cone sawtooth flicker appeared redder, and the mean hue of slowly-off L-cone and slowly-on M-cone sawtooth stimuli appeared greener-despite all the waveforms' having the same m...

A longstanding and unresolved question is how observers construct a discrete set of color categories to partition and label the continuous variations in light spectra, and how these categories might reflect the neural representation of color. We explored the properties of color naming and its relationship to color appearance by analyzing individual differences in color-naming and hue-scaling pa...

In this paper, we discuss common colour models for background subtraction and problems related to their utilisation are discussed. A novel approach to represent chrominance information more suitable for robust background modelling and shadow suppression is proposed. Our method relies on the ability to represent colours in terms of a 3D-polar coordinate system having saturation independent of th...
