Colour constancy models

Figure 8.14 Neural architecture of Usui and Nakauchi (1997). The architecture consists of four layers denoted by A, B, C, and D. The input image is fed into the architecture at the input layer. Layer D is the output layer. (Redrawn from Figure 8.4.1 (page 477) Usui S and Nakauchi S 1997 A neurocomputational model for colour constancy. In (eds.

Stephen Westland continues the topic of human perception of colour in Chapter 4. He describes the retinal image and the effects of the surroundings on the perception and appearance of colour, especially the phenomena of colour constancy and colour contrast. The importance of white as a reference point in the field of human vision and its role in adaptation is presented. The development of colour appearance models is outhned and the relationship of these uniform colour space models to their use in the formation of digital image...
