Abstract

AbstractIn this study, Swedish Natural Color System (NCS) unique hue data were used to evaluate the performance of unique hue predictions by the CIECAM02 colour appearance model. The colour appearance of 108 NCS unique hue stimuli was predicted using CIECAM02, and their distributions were represented in a CIECAM02 ac–bc chromatic diagram. The best‐fitting line for each of the four unique hues was found using orthogonal distance regression in the ac–bc chromatic diagram. Comparison of these predicted unique hue lines (based on the NCS data) with the default unique hue loci in CIECAM02 showed that there were significant differences in both unique yellow (UY) and unique blue (UB). The same tendency was found for hue uniformity: hue uniformity is worse for UY and UB stimuli in comparison with unique red (UR) and unique green (UG). A comparison between NCS unique hue stimuli and another set of unique hue stimuli (obtained on a calibrated cathode ray tube) was conducted in CIECAM02 to investigate possible media differences that might affect unique hue predictions. Data for UY and UB are in very good agreement; largest deviations were found for UR. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Col Res Appl, 40, 256–263, 2015
