Abstract: A method of improving an initial color filter comprises a numerical generation of sinusoidal spectra. Two steps of selecting said spectra are then executed. The first selection is carried out according to a criterion of calorimetric similitude with respect to the initial filter. The second selection is carried out according to the capacity of dummy filters corresponding to each spectrum to restore hues in a natural manner. To do this, observations of samples of hues through each dummy filter are simulated numerically, using a color appearance model to take account of a visual perception of a human observer. In this way, an improved filter is determined, which has a color close to that of the initial filter and which affords a natural rendition of hues.

Abstract: Small, fast, and inexpensive in-line spectrophotometers can produce in-line spectrums of a substrate before or after printing on the substrate. In-line spectrums are generally far less complete than a reference spectrum produced with a large, slow, and expensive reference spectrophotometer. An in-line spectrum can be mapped to a reference spectrum using a variety of known algorithms. However, the mapping is erroneous when the media substrate type changes. Reference transform matrices and in-line transform matrices can correct the erroneous mapping.

Abstract: A semiconductor color sensor implemented without the use of color filters. Fabricating photodiodes using different semiconductor materials provide photodiodes with different sensitivities vs. wavelengths. A first embodiment uses photodiodes with different junction depths. A shallow junction depth produces a photodiode with its sensitivity peak in shorter wavelengths, while a deeper junction depth produces a photodiode with its sensitivity peak in longer wavelengths. Amorphous as well as crystalline structures may be used. A second embodiment uses photodiodes with different materials, such as Silicon-Germanium (SiGe) which has a longer wavelength peak sensitivity, and Silicon (Si) which has a shorter wavelength peak sensitivity in comparison. More than two photodiodes having different wavelength sensitivities may be used. Sensing current ratios between pairs of diodes allows color balance to be maintained.

Abstract: To determine spectra, integrated multiple illuminant measurements from a non-fully illuminant populated color sensor may be converted into a fully populated spectral curve using a reference database. The reference database is partitioned into a plurality of clusters, and an appropriate centroid is determined for each cluster by, for example, vector quantization. Training samples that form the reference database may be assigned to the clusters by comparing the Euclidean distance between the centroids and the sample under consideration, and assigning each sample to the cluster having the centroid with the shortest Euclidean distance. When all training samples have been assigned, the resulting structure is stored as the reference database. When reconstructing the spectra for new measurements from the sensor, the Euclidean distances between actual color samples under measurement and each cluster centroid are measured. The spectra are then reconstructed using only the training samples from the cluster corresponding to the shortest Euclidean distance, resulting in improved speed and accuracy.
