The Influence Of Test Colors On The Color Rendering Index Maximization In A Three Component Spectral Power Distribution, Gregory Miller Jun 1976

The Influence Of Test Colors On The Color Rendering Index Maximization In A Three Component Spectral Power Distribution, Gregory Miller

Theses

This thesis describes the technique of principle component analysis as applied to determining if a combination of three characteristic vectors would account for an underlying structure in the eight color test objects specified by the CIE for calculation of the color rendering index (CRI). Anticipated was that three vectors would account for 100 % of the variance in the eight test objects; however it was determined that three vectors account for only 96 % of the variance. Since the analysis of the reflectance functions showed no dependence within the functions a 3^3 factorial experiment was conducted. Its purpose was to …
