Color Vision

573
Color perception begins in the retina, the light-sensitive layer at the back of the eye. Two main theories explain how colors are seen: the trichromatic theory and the opponent-process theory. The trichromatic theory, proposed by Thomas Young in 1802 and extended by Hermann von Helmholtz in 1852, suggests that color vision is based on three types of cone receptors in the retina. These cones are sensitive to different but overlapping ranges of wavelengths corresponding to red, blue, and green.

    Area of Science:

    • Computer Vision
    • Image Processing
    • Machine Learning

    Background:

    • Illuminant estimation using deep neural networks (DNNs) typically demands extensive sensor-specific data collection.
    • Existing methods face challenges in efficiency and data acquisition for diverse sensors.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce a novel dual-mapping strategy (DMCC) for efficient and accurate illuminant estimation.
    • To reduce the need for sensor-specific data collection in training illuminant estimation models.

    Main Methods:

    • The DMCC method reconstructs image and illuminant data using only white points from training and testing sensors under D65.
    • Reconstructed images are mapped into sparse features, which, along with reconstructed illuminants, train a lightweight multi-layer perceptron (MLP) model.
    • The trained MLP model directly estimates illuminants for the testing sensor.

    Main Results:

    • The proposed DMCC method achieves performance comparable to state-of-the-art techniques across three datasets.
    • The lightweight MLP model demonstrates a smaller parameter count and faster processing speed.
    • The method eliminates the requirement for testing sensor data collection during the training phase.

    Conclusions:

    • The DMCC method offers a practical and efficient solution for illuminant estimation.
    • Its reduced data requirements and computational efficiency make it suitable for real-world applications.
    • This work extends previous research with enhanced details and analyses.
