Mapping Quantitative Observer Metamerism of Displays.

Observer metamerism (OM) is the name given to the variability between the color matches that individual observers consider accurate. The standard color imaging approach, which uses color-matching functions of a single representative observer, does not accurately represent every individual observer's perceptual properties. This paper investigates OM in color displays and proposes a quantitative assessment of the OM distribution across the chromaticity diagram.

Experimental study on merits of virtual cleaning of paintings with aged varnish.

To assess the accuracy of virtual cleaning of Old Master paintings (i.e. digital removal of discolored varnishes), a physical model was developed and experimentally tested using reflectance imaging spectroscopy on three paintings undergoing conservation treatment.
