商品描述

Color for the Sciences is the first book on colorimetry to offer an account that emphasizes conceptual and formal issues rather than applications. Jan Koenderink's introductory text treats colorimetry—literally, "color measurement"—as a science, freeing the topic from the usual fixation on conventional praxis and how to get the "right" result. Readers of Color for the Sciences will learn to rethink concepts from the roots in order to reach a broader, conceptual understanding.

After a brief account of the history of the discipline (beginning with Isaac Newton) and a chapter titled "Colorimetry for Dummies," the heart of the book covers the main topics in colorimetry, including the space of beams, achromatic beams, edge colors, optimum colors, color atlases, and spectra. Other chapters cover more specialized topics, including implementations, metrics pioneered by Schrödinger and Helmholtz, and extended color space.

Color for the Sciences can be used as a reference for professionals or in a formal introductory course on colorimetry. It will be especially useful both for those working with color in a scientific or engineering context who find the standard texts lacking and for professionals and students in image engineering, computer graphics, and computer science. Each chapter ends with exercises, many of which are open-ended, suggesting ways to explore the topic further, and can be developed into research projects. The text and notes contain numerous suggestions for demonstration experiments and individual explorations. The book is self-contained, with formal methods explained in appendixes when necessary.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

《科學中的色彩》是第一本關於色度計的書籍,強調概念和形式問題,而非應用。Jan Koenderink的入門性文本將色度計(字面上的“色彩測量”)視為一門科學,將該主題從對傳統實踐和如何獲得“正確”結果的固定觀念中解放出來。《科學中的色彩》的讀者將學習重新思考概念,以達到更廣泛的概念理解。

在簡要介紹該學科的歷史(從艾薩克·牛頓開始)和一章標題為“色度計入門”的章節之後,本書的核心部分涵蓋了色度計的主要主題,包括光束空間、無色光束、邊緣色彩、最佳色彩、色彩地圖和光譜。其他章節涵蓋了更專門的主題,包括Schrödinger和Helmholtz開創的指標和擴展色彩空間。

《科學中的色彩》可作為專業人士的參考書,或在正式的色度計入門課程中使用。對於在科學或工程背景下使用色彩的人士來說,這本書將特別有用,因為他們覺得標準教材不足,同時也適用於圖像工程、計算機圖形學和計算機科學的專業人士和學生。每章結束時都有練習題,其中許多是開放式的,建議進一步探索該主題,並可發展成研究項目。正文和註釋中提供了許多示範實驗和個人探索的建議。本書是自成體系的,必要時在附錄中解釋了正式方法。
