Abstract

In this paper the effect of the noise on the number of effective channels (color filters), used to record a color image, is investigated. Transmittances of color filters are calculated which minimise the mean square error that occurs when estimating, from the recorded data, the colors in the image under a collection of viewing illuminants. Since the results indicate that a significant improvement in color correction accuracy is achieved by using four channels, there is good reason to consider using four-tuples for representation of colorimetric information.
