  2. Color wheel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_wheel

    A color wheel or color circle [1] is an abstract illustrative organization of color hues around a circle, which shows the relationships between primary colors, secondary colors, tertiary colors etc. Some sources use the terms color wheel and color circle interchangeably; [ 2 ] [ 3 ] however, one term or the other may be more prevalent in ...

  3. Color difference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_difference

    The CIE 1976 color difference formula is the first formula that related a measured color difference to a known set of CIELAB coordinates. This formula has been succeeded by the 1994 and 2000 formulas because the CIELAB space turned out to be not as perceptually uniform as intended, especially in the saturated regions.

  4. Domain coloring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domain_coloring

    Domain coloring plot of the function f(x) = ⁠ (x 2 − 1)(x − 2 − i) 2 / x 2 + 2 + 2i ⁠, using the structured color function described below. In complex analysis, domain coloring or a color wheel graph is a technique for visualizing complex functions by assigning a color to each point of the complex plane. By assigning points on the ...

    Color Wheel Terminology. Neutral: black, white, brown, and gray Complementary: opposites on the color wheel, which appear brighter when they are used together (examples: yellow and purple, red and ...

  6. Munsell color system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Munsell_color_system

    In colorimetry, the Munsell color system is a color space that specifies colors based on three properties of color: hue (basic color), value , and chroma (color intensity). It was created by Albert H. Munsell in the first decade of the 20th century and adopted by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) as the official color system ...

  7. CIELAB color space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CIELAB_color_space

    The "CIELCh" or "CIEHLC" space is a color space based on CIELAB, which uses the polar coordinates C* (chroma, relative saturation) and h° (hue angle, angle of the hue in the CIELAB color wheel) instead of the Cartesian coordinates a* and b*. The CIELAB lightness L* remains unchanged.

  8. CIE 1931 color space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CIE_1931_color_space

    A comparison between a typical normalized M cone's spectral sensitivity and the CIE 1931 luminosity function for a standard observer in photopic vision. In the CIE 1931 model, Y is the luminance, Z is quasi-equal to blue (of CIE RGB), and X is a mix of the three CIE RGB curves chosen to be nonnegative (see § Definition of the CIE XYZ color space).

  9. Dominant wavelength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dominant_wavelength

    In color science, the dominant wavelength is a method of approximating a color's hue. Along with purity , it makes up one half of the Helmholtz coordinates. A color's dominant wavelength is the wavelength of monochromatic spectral light that, if plotted in a chromaticity diagram, the straight line that passes through the color in question and ...
