ABSTRACT
In the process of editorial design, a harmonious match between a picture and a solid color is often essential to achieve a high quality of a graphical art work. Color as such is a compelling cue to elicit emotional responses and thus can enhance the emotional quality of an image. Tools and methods have been developed to automatize the color selection process, and a noticeable progress has been achieved to extract perceptually dominant colors of an image. However, little attention has been paid to the emotional characteristics of selected colors, and it has been highly relying on the color designers' manual judgments. In this study, we propose a computational method that creates a color that enhances both aesthetic and affective quality of an image, and call it a theme color.

Hue-preserving color image enhancement without gamut problem
The first step in many techniques for processing intensity and saturation in color images keeping hue unaltered is the transformation of the image data from RGB space to other color spaces such as LHS, HSI, YIQ, HSV, etc. Transforming from one space to ...
Automatic flesh tone reappearance for color enhancement in TV
Color enhancement of reproduced color images has been a critical problem in TV systems. A flesh tone reappearance circuit is implemented to enhance the flesh tones as a standard reference color. The system consists of a phase detector to detect the ...
Lighting condition adaptive tone mapping method
SIGGRAPH '18: ACM SIGGRAPH 2018 PostersWe propose an adaptive tone mapping method for displaying HDR images according to ambient light conditions. To compensate the loss of perceived luminance in brighter viewing conditions, we enhance the HDR image by an algorithm based on the Naka-Rushton ...
