  2. Munsell color system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Munsell_color_system

    The Munsell color system, showing: a circle of hues at value 5 chroma 6; the neutral values from 0 to 10; and the chromas of purple-blue (5PB) at value 5. In colorimetry, the Munsell color system is a color space that specifies colors based on three properties of color: hue (basic color), value (lightness), and chroma (color intensity).

  3. Tint, shade and tone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tint,_shade_and_tone

    Tint, shade and tone. In color theory, a tint is a mixture of a color with white, which increases lightness, while a shade is a mixture with black, which increases darkness. Both processes affect the resulting color mixture's relative saturation. A tone is produced either by mixing a color with gray, or by both tinting and shading. [1]

  4. Auditory masking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auditory_masking

    Auditory masking. In audio signal processing, auditory masking occurs when the perception of one sound is affected by the presence of another sound. [1] Auditory masking in the frequency domain is known as simultaneous masking, frequency masking or spectral masking. Auditory masking in the time domain is known as temporal masking or non ...

  5. Accuracy and precision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accuracy_and_precision

    the difference between the mean of the measurements and the reference value, the bias. Establishing and correcting for bias is necessary for calibration. the combined effect of that and precision. A common convention in science and engineering is to express accuracy and/or precision implicitly by means of significant figures. Where not ...

  6. Tonal memory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tonal_memory

    Tonal memory. In music, tonal memory or "aural recall" is the ability to remember a specific tone after it has been heard. [1] Tonal memory assists with staying in tune and may be developed through ear training. Extensive tonal memory may be recognized as an indication of potential compositional ability. [2]

  7. Photogram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photogram

    A photogram of a number of photography-related objects. Photogram with soil and plants. A photogram is a photographic image made without a camera by placing objects directly onto the surface of a light-sensitive material such as photographic paper and then exposing it to light. The usual result is a negative shadow image that shows variations ...

  8. Dot gain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dot_gain

    Dot gain, or tonal value increase, is a phenomenon in offset lithography and some other forms of printing which causes printed material to look darker than intended. It is caused by halftone dots growing in area between the original printing film and the final printed result. In practice, this means that an image that has not been adjusted to ...

  9. CIELAB color space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CIELAB_color_space

    The CIELAB color space, also referred to as L*a*b*, is a color space defined by the International Commission on Illumination (abbreviated CIE) in 1976. [a] It expresses color as three values: L* for perceptual lightness and a* and b* for the four unique colors of human vision: red, green, blue and yellow. CIELAB was intended as a perceptually ...
