چکیده
Objectives: To compare shade matching skills of color normal males and females. Material and Methods: A total of 174 dental students of both genders (117 females and 57 males, 20 to 25 years old), with no experience in color matching in dentistry, participated in the study. All recruited students passed the Ishihara color vision test for color deficiency, and matched the colors of eight shade tabs using VITA Linearguide 3D-Master shade guide. Standardized lighting conditions were provided using Rite-Lite (Addent Danbury, CT, USA) hand-held shade matching unit. Color differences between the task tabs and selected tabs were calculated using two CIE color difference formulae and students results were evaluated from 10 (for the best match score) to 1 for the 10th best match score. Means and standard deviations were determined. Student’s t-test was used for result analysis (p = .05). Results: The mean shade matching scores and standard deviations for male and female students were 5.86 (SD 1.38) and 6.10 (SD 1.36), respectively (p = .266). No statistically significant differences in overall and individual target tab scores by gender were recorded. Conclusion: Within the limitation of this study, it was concluded that gender did not influence color matching quality.

Instrument dependency of Kubelka-Munk theory in computer color matching
Different industries are usually faced with computer color matching as an important problem. The most famous formula which is commonly used for recipe prediction is based on Kubelka-Munk K-M theory. Considering that spectrophotometer’s geometry and its situation influence the measured spectral values, the performance of this method can be affected by the instrument. In the present study, three ...

متن کاملColor scene transform between images using Rosenfeld-Kak histogram matching method
In digital color imaging, it is of interest to transform the color scene of an image to the other. Some attempts have been done in this case using, for example, lαβ color space, principal component analysis and recently histogram rescaling method. In this research, a novel method is proposed based on the Resenfeld and Kak histogram matching algorithm. It is suggested that to transform the color...
متن کاملColor Improvement Based on Local Color Transfer in Digital Intermediate of Digital Cinema
In digital cinema, an image goes through many types of processes like scanning, mastering, and digital intermediate. Among them, the digital intermediate process plays a central role because it determines the final color of an image. It edits and changes the colors of the images. However, some color distortions such as color bleeding are generated when editing and changing local colors in an im...
متن کاملColor naming reveals our ability to distinguish between a colored background and colored light.
Objects appear to have much the same color under quite diverse illumination. This phenomenon, which is known as color constancy, can only be achieved by considering the color of surrounding surfaces. However, considering surrounding surfaces will yield errors if the chromaticity in such surfaces arises from the surface reflectance rather than from the illumination. Does the visual system treat ...
