Book Descriptions:
A human observer is able to recognize the color of objects irrespective of the light used to illuminate them. This is called color constancy. A digital camera uses a sensor to measure the reflected light, meaning that the measured color at each pixel varies according to the color of the illuminant. Therefore, the resulting colors may not be the same as the colors that were perceived by the observer. Obtaining color constant descriptors from image pixels is not only important for digital photography, but also valuable for computer vision, color-based automatic object recognition, and color image processing in general.

This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the field of color constancy, describing all the major color constancy algorithms, as well as presenting cutting edge research in the area of color image processing. Beginning with an in-depth look at the human visual system, Ebner goes on to:

• examine the theory of color image formation, color reproduction and different color spaces;
• discuss algorithms for color constancy under both uniform and non-uniform illuminants;
• describe methods for shadow removal and shadow attenuation in digital images;
• evaluate the various algorithms for object recognition and color constancy and compare this to data obtained from experimental psychology;
• set out the different algorithms as pseudo code in an appendix at the end of the book.

Color Constancy is an ideal reference for practising engineers, computer scientists and researchers working in the area of digital color image processing. It may also be useful for biologists or scientists in general who are interested in computational theories of the visual brain and bio-inspired engineering systems.

From reader reviews:

Mary Bingham:

Do you have favorite book? If you have, what is your favorite's book? E-book is very important thing for us to find out everything in the world. Each publication has different aim as well as goal; it means that publication has different type. Some people sense enjoy to spend their a chance to read a book. They are really reading whatever they have because their hobby is actually reading a book. How about the person who don't like examining a book? Sometime, man or woman feel need book when they found difficult problem or perhaps exercise. Well, probably you'll have this Color Constancy.

Dwight Case:

Book is usually written, printed, or highlighted for everything. You can learn everything you want by a e-book. Book has a different type. To be sure that book is important thing to bring us around the world. Alongside that you can your reading expertise was fluently. A publication Color Constancy will make you to possibly be smarter.

Amanda Furr:

As we know that book is vital thing to add our knowledge for everything. By a reserve we can know everything we wish. A book is a group of written, printed, illustrated or maybe blank sheet. Every year has been exactly added. This publication Color Constancy was filled concerning science. Spend your free time to add your knowledge about your technology competence. Some people has several feel when they reading some sort of book. If you know how big benefit from a book, you can truly feel enjoy to read a reserve. In the modern era like right now, many ways to get book you wanted.
