Normal color constancy: Not a unitary phenomenon?

    Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

    Abstract

    The property that surface colors appear the same under different lights has been assumed to be fundamental to color vision. Experimental methods used to quantify color constancy include color naming, achromatic adjustment, and asymmetric color matching. Yet, all three methods provide incomplete information about surface spectral reflectance. Their limitations may be a consequence of the fact that surface-color perception is not a unitary phenomenon and that there are distinct perceptual mechanisms providing different kinds of information with different precisions in different tasks.
