In this book the authors identify the basic concepts and recent advances in the acquisition, perception, coding and color rendering. For researchers, engineers, Master and PhD students, this book describes the state of the art about scientific and technical issues raised by the different stages of the digital color process. This book addresses the fundamental aspects related to colorimetry and physiology, constancy and color appearance. It also addresses the more technical aspects related to sensors and color management screen. Particular attention was also paid to the notion of color rendering in computer graphics. Beyond color, a deeper state of the art is also conducted on coding, compression, protection and quality of color images and videos.
