Color Appearance Models
Color appearance models allow the prediction of perceptual correlates (e.g., lightness, chroma or hue) of a given surface color under certain viewing conditions (e.g., a certain illuminant, surround or background). The complexity of color appearance models can range from very low, e.g., CIELAB can technically be considered a color appearance model, to very complex models that take into account a large number color appearance phenomena.
Each of the classes in this module represents a specific model and its computation, yielding the predicted perceptual correlates as instance attributes. Discussing the details of each model go beyond this documentation, but we provide references to the relevant literature for each model and would advice familiarising yourself with it, before using a given models.
Example
# Color stimulus
color = XYZColor(19.01, 20, 21.78)
# The two illuminants that will be compared.
illuminant_d65 = XYZColor(95.05, 100, 108.88)
illuminant_a = XYZColor(109.85, 100, 35.58)
# Background relative luminance
y_b = 20
# Adapting luminance
l_a = 328.31
# Surround condition assumed to be average (see CIECAM02 documentation for values)
c = 0.69
n_c = 1
