Abstract

Planckian illuminants and von Kries diagonal model are commonly assumed by many computer vision algorithms for modeling the color variations between two images of a same scene captured under two different illuminants. Here we present a method to estimate a von Kries transform approximating a Planckian illuminant change and we show that the Planckian assumption constraints the von Kries coefficients to belong to a ruled surface, that depends on physical cues of the lights. Moreover, we provide an approximated parametric representation of such a surface, making evident the dependence of the von Kries transform on the light color temperature and on the intensity.
