Individually tuned color enhancements for imagery interpretation by color-impaired users

摘要

Experiments have been performed with software to allow color-impaired users to tune and save their own enhancement scales for image interpretation. An interactive technique that enabled image users to define and save their own scales was developed. Color-impaired subjects were recruited and asked to develop scales to assist them in feature recognition on a set of three images, including both infrared and visual data. Example images that are enhanced by using scales tuned to several different types of color impairment are presented.
