Assessment of Human Color Discrimination Based on Illuminant Color, Ambient Illumination and Screen Background Color for Visual Display Terminal Workers

Assessment of human color discrimination based on illuminant color, ambient illumination and screen background color for visual display terminal workers.

Human performance on color discrimination in visual display terminals may be affected by illuminant colors, the level of ambient illumination and background colors of the monitor. Few studies have focused on this topic. This study investigated human color discrimination ability in a simulated control room. Ten subjects were recruited as participants to perform a series of experimental tasks. A ...

Graph-based Visual Saliency Model using Background Color

Visual saliency is a cognitive psychology concept that makes some stimuli of a scene stand out relative to their neighbors and attract our attention. Computing visual saliency is a topic of recent interest. Here, we propose a graph-based method for saliency detection, which contains three stages: pre-processing, initial saliency detection and final saliency detection. The initial saliency map i...

The Effect of Background Luminance and Ambient Illumination on Color Discrimination in a Crt

A matching task was used to measure the effects of ambient illumination, raster luminance, and target size on color discriminability in a CRT display. A set of ten easily distinguishable colors was presented under two conditions of ambient illumination (dark and bright) and two conditions of raster luminance (low and intermediate). Below this set, a target color was presented as either a circle...

Estimation of the Illuminant Color from Human Skin Color

Colour is an important and useful feature for object tracking and recognition in computer vision. However, it has the difficulty that the colour of the object changes if the illuminant colour changes. But under known illuminant colour it becomes a robust feature. There are more and more computer vision applications tracking humans, for example in interfaces for human computer interaction or aut...
