Abstract:
To obtain the visual characteristics of frequency response under uniform-scaled color space and to construct its model, the contrast sensitivity functions of hue (
SH) were tested under CIE1976
L* a* b* system. A series of images with sinusoidal change of hue angle in spatial frequency domain were displayed on a calibrated color display system. A lot of visual observation tests were carried out and 12
SH functions at corresponding hue angle centers were finally obtained. The test result shows that, under different hue angle centers, the
SH functions are different. The differences among the 12
SH functions are related to the color distinguishing characteristics of human visual system. Based on the visual test data, the functional model of
SH could be constructed.
