October 29, Tuesday, 13:30 – 15:30 (2 hours)
Instructor: Ming Ronnier Luo, Zhejiang University
Level: Intermediate
Prerequisites: Understanding of basic color science (XYZ, CIELAB, CIECAMs).
Benefits This course enables the attendee to:
• Understand the structure of uniform color spaces (UCSs).
• Learn to produce robust psychophysical data to evaluate UCSs.
• Know the methods for testing and reporting their performances.
• Apply UCSs in different applications such as imaging and lighting industries.
Course Description
This course covers theories behind existing uniform color spaces (UCSs), properties of UCSs (color uniformity and hue linearity), methods for the evaluation of UCSs, and application of UCSs to evaluate the quality of light sources and to SDR and HDR images. A UCS with simple structure and predictive accuracy is also introduced.
Intended Audience: color engineers/scientists in the fields color science, imaging science, illumination engineering, and digital imaging, such as cameras, displays, and image processing.
Ronnier Luo is a chair professor in the Optical Engineering Department, Zhejiang University (China).
