Field trials on color appearance of chromatic colors under various light sources

Abstract Field trials of the nonlinear color‐appearance model and the nonlinear chromatic‐adaptation transform were done on the effect of chromatic adaptation between illuminants C and A, and also on the visual estimations by Mori and Fuchida under five fluorescent lamps. The model could give reasonably good predictions to the visual estimations in the above two conditions. In addition, the present study confirmed that the nonlinear color‐appearance model and the nonlinear chromatic‐adaptation transform could better predict the chromatic‐adaptation effect between C and A than the von Kries law.
