Basic Research for Distinguishing Small Retinal Hemorrhages from Dust Artifact by using Hue, Lightness, and Saturation Color Space
نویسنده
چکیده
To distinguish small retinal hemorrhages in early diabetic retinopathy from dust artifacts, we analyzed hue, lightness, and saturation (HLS) color spaces. The fundus of 5 patients with diabetic retinopathy was photographed. For the initial experiment, we placed 4 different colored papers on the ceiling of a darkroom. Using each color, 10 fragments of house dust particles on a magnifier were photographed. The colored papers were removed, and 3 different colored light bulbs were suspended from the ceiling. Ten fragments of house dust particles on the camera’s object lens were photographed. We then constructed an experimental device that can photograph artificial eyes. Five fragments of house dust particles under the ocher fundus of the artificial eye were photographed. On analyzing HLS color space of the dust artifact, lightness and saturation were found to be highly sensitive. However, hue was not highly sensitive. Keywords—Dust artifact, HLS color space, Retinal hemorrhage, and Diabetic retinopathy

Perceptual color map in macaque visual area V4.
Colors distinguishable with trichromatic vision can be defined by a 3D color space, such as red-green-blue or hue-saturation-lightness (HSL) space, but it remains unclear how the cortex represents colors along these dimensions. Using intrinsic optical imaging and electrophysiology, and systematically choosing color stimuli from HSL coordinates, we examined how perceptual colors are mapped in vi...
متن کاملThe role of lightness, hue and saturation in feature-based visual attention
Visual attention is used to select part of the visual array for higher-level processing. Visual selection can be based on spatial location, but it has also been demonstrated that multiple locations can be selected simultaneously on the basis of a visual feature such as color. One task that has been used to demonstrate feature-based attention is the judgement of the symmetry of simple four-color...
متن کاملDeriving Appearance Scales
The concept of color space has come to be an unquestioned threedimensional representation of color stimuli, or color appearance, intended to simplify the relationships among physically measurable attributes of light, mathematical formulae, and human sensations and perceptions. The notion of three-dimensional mathematical spaces as adjuncts for color is often helpful, but perhaps also misleading...
متن کاملEditorial: Color Vision Sensation and Perception
Color vision is one of the most intriguing phenomena of the visual experience and has been the object of study from vision scientists to philosophers of perception. The wavelengths, their intensity and purity are experienced as hue, brightness and saturation based on complex information processing of the light entering the eyes. This special research topic is devoted to covering from basic aspe...
متن کاملImage Retrieval using Fuzzy Representation of Colors
The problem addressed in this article is image indexing and retrieval according to the color. Indeed we propose a classification based on the dominant color(s) of the images. The process consists in two steps: first, assigning a colorimetric profile to the image in HLS space (Hue, Lightness, Saturation) and then, handling the query for the retrieval. To achieve the first step, the definition of...
