A spectral-projected gradient method and an extension of the Kubelka-Munk theory are applied to obtain the relevant parameters of the theory from measured diffuse reflectance spectra of pigmented samples illuminated with visible diffuse radiation. The initial estimate of the spectral dependence of the parameters, required by a recursive spectral-projected gradient method, was obtained by use of...

We present a pair of coupled partial differential equations to describe the evolution of the average total intensity and intensity flux of a wave field inside a randomly layered medium. These equations represent a modification of the Kubelka-Munk equations, or radiative transfer. Our modification accounts for wave interference (e.g., localization), which is neglected in radiative transfer. We n...

The reflectance factors of transparent fibers, free delustering agent, are predicted by geometric as well as Kubelka-Munk models. Transparent fibers are simulated by a net of glass capillary tubes containing different solutions of dyestuffs. Based on the results, prediction of the reflectance factor of capillary net by geometric model is relatively better than those obtained from Kubelka-Munk...

In the ceramic industry half-tone images are often generated from a small number of separations with the result that inks are printed over each other to achieve the final print. This study investigates whether an n-modified spectral Neugebauer-based model, which has been used quite successfully to predict reflectance for prints on paper substrates, can be used to predict the color of half-tone ...

In this study, the optical properties of AlInN/AlN high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) structure, grown on c-oriented sapphire with Metal-Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition (MOCVD) technique, being investigated. Optical characterization is made Kubelka- Munk method. Transmittance, absorbance, and reflectance are investigated in detail. Also, Kubelka-Munk theory employed to determine forbidd...

This article provides a theoretical junction between two different mathematical models dedicated to the reflectance and the transmittance of diffusing layers. The KubelkaMunk model proposes a continuous description of scattering and absorption for two opposite diffuse fluxes in a homogenous layer (continuous 2-flux model). On the other hand, Kubelka’s layering model describes the multiple refle...

Colour realism plays an important role in computer graphics and visualization. In this paper, we present a new approach to direct volume rendering based on the Kubelka-Munk theory of diffuse reflectance. We show that not only the Kubelka-Munk theory facilitates a correct spectral volume rendering integral suitable for both solid objects and amorphous matters in volume datasets, but also provide...
