    A revised model incorporating cone mechanisms explains dichromatic color vision and receptor effects. It accurately predicts normal and dichromatic data across various visual phenomena, including color matching and spectral sensitivities.

    Area of Science:

    • Vision Science
    • Color Perception
    • Photoreceptor Physiology

    Background:

    • Existing models of color vision often simplify or omit cone mechanisms.
    • Understanding receptor adaptation is crucial for explaining complex visual phenomena.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To revise an earlier model by including cone mechanisms.
    • To account for phenomena involving both receptor effects and dichromatic color vision.
    • To predict a wide range of visual data for both normal and dichromatic observers.

    Main Methods:

    • Incorporated cone mechanisms into a revised computational model.
    • Varied intensity-dependent parameters simulating receptor and color mechanism adaptation.
    • Tested model predictions against empirical data for normals and dichromats.

    Main Results:

    • The revised model successfully predicted color matching data.
    • Accurate predictions were made for spectral hue, saturation, and sensitivities under various adaptation conditions.
    • Model accounted for additivity failures, brightness-luminance differences, and discrimination performance.

    Conclusions:

    • The inclusion of cone mechanisms significantly enhances color vision models.
    • The model provides a unified framework for understanding normal and dichromatic vision.
    • Intensity-dependent adaptation parameters are key to predicting diverse visual phenomena.
