Research Abstract

The estimation of the illumination chromaticity from a color image was studied. This study is based on the dichromatic reflection model. At first, it was verified that the reflection model holds well for plastics. On that condition, the chromaticity of a one-color object is distributed on a straight line, and the lines corresponding to the multiple objects with various colors cross each other at a single point, which shows the illumination chromaticity.
Based on the theory, the method, in which the calibration of the gamma-characteristic of a digital camera and the estimation of the illumination chromaticity are simultaneously achieved, was developed. The raw mode color images from single-lens reflex cameras and their manually segmented images are used for the experiment. The gamma-characteristics of each camera was approximated by hyperbolic functions. By optimizing the parameters for the functions, the accuracy for the illumination chromaticity estimation could be improved.
