Automatic white balancing works quite well on average, but seriously fails some of the time. These failures lead to completely unacceptable images. Can the number, or severity, of these failures be…

A new two-stage illumination estimation method based on the concept of rank is presented. The method first estimates the illuminant locally in subwindows using a ranking of digital counts in each…

The performance of color prediction methods CIECAM02, KSM2, Waypoint, Best Linear, MMV center, and relit color signal are compared in terms of how well they explain Logvinenko & Tokunaga’s…

Large multi-spectral datasets such as those created by multi-spectral images require a lot of data storage. Compression of these data is therefore an important problem. A common approach is to use…

An important component of camera calibration is to derive a mapping of a camera’s output RGB to a deviceindependent color space such as the CIE XYZ or sRGB6. Commonly, the calibration process is…

This article examines the re-negotiation of sex-based boundaries within the context of transgender/transsexual inclusion in North American lesbian softball leagues. Semi-structured interviews with…

Metamer mismatching (the phenomenon that two objects matching in color under one illuminant may not match under a different illuminant) potentially has important consequences for color perception.…

To safeguard the environment and satisfy the energy needs of the present, without compromising the ability of future generations to do the same, sustainable energy development is urgently needed.…

Recently Logvinenko introduced a new objectcolor space, establishing a complete color atlas that is invariant to illumination [2]. However, the existing implementation for calculating the proposed…

The purpose of our research study, Precarity in Libraries, is to provide new information on the extent and effects of precarious work in library settings in Canada. Precarious labour structures such…

Key life-cycle transitions, such as metamorphosis or migration, can be altered by a variety of external factors, such as climate variation, strong species interactions, and management intervention,…

Aeroallergens occur naturally in the environment and are widely dispersed across Canada, yet their public health implications are not well-understood. This review intends to provide a scientific and…

In this paper I explore ethnographically the tension between urban Toba indigenous people living in Buenos Aires, ubiquitous incorporation of mobile phones and the deep disconnecting effects mobile…

The poor performance of the MaxRGB illuminationestimation method is often used in the literature as a foil when promoting some new illumination-estimation method. However, the results presented here…

The set of all possible cone excitation triplets from reflecting surfaces tmder a given illuminant forms a volume in cone excitation space known as the object-co/our solid (OCS). An important task in…

A new algorithm for evaluating metamer mismatch volumes is introduced. Unlike previous methods, the proposed method places no restrictions on the set of possible object reflectance spectra. Such…

The performance of the MaxRGB illumination-estimation method for color constancy and automatic white balancing has been reported in the literature as being mediocre at best; however, MaxRGB has…

Color image calibration is usually done with the aid of a color chart such as the Macbeth ColorChecker containing a set of carefully produced color patches. However, in many consumer applications…

It is clear that our daily reality will increasingly interface with virtual inputs. We already integrate the virtual into real life through constantly evolving sensor technologies embedded into our…

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…
