Availability Information

We source books from suppliers in Australia and overseas. For books we don't currently have in stock, the time it takes to get them from our suppliers can vary widely - from a few days to a few months - so we check each book with each supplier to determine the expected time it will take to be supplied to us.

Gamut mapping algorithms, implemented by color management systems, are an integral part of the color reproduction process. By adjusting the colors with appropriate algorithms, gamut mapping enables original colors to ‘fit’ inside differently shaped color gamuts and authentically transfers images across a range of media.

This book illustrates the range of possible gamut mapping strategies for cross-media color reproduction, evaluates the performance of various options and advises on designing new, improved solutions. Starting with overviews of color science, reproduction and management, the text includes:

a detailed survey of 90+ gamut mapping algorithms covering color-by-color reduction and expansion, spatial reduction, spectral reduction and gamut mapping for niche applications; a step-by-step example of a color’s journey from original to reproduction, via a digital workflow; a detailed analysis of color gamut computation, including a comparison of alternative techniques and an illustration of the gamuts of salient color sets and media; a presentation of both measurement-based and psychovisual evaluation of individual color reproductions; an overview of alternative approaches to gamut mapping proposed by the ISO and the CIE including an analysis of the building blocks of gamut mapping algorithms and the factors affecting their performance.

Color Gamut Mapping is a comprehensive resource for practicing color and imaging engineers, scientists and researchers working in the development of imaging devices, software and solutions. It is also a valuable reference for students of color and imaging science, as well as photographers, graphic designers and artists.

Dr Ján Morovi , Hewlett-Packard Espanola, S. L, Avda. Grealls, Barcelona, Spain Ján Morovi is currently a Senior Color Scientist at Hewlett-Packard Espanola, Barcelona, Spain. He is highly regarded in the field of colour science, being Chair of the CIE (International Commission on Illumination) technical committee 8-03 on gamut mapping, a post he has held since 1998. Before his appointment in industry for Hewlett-Packard, Dr Morovi has also had academic experience at the University of Derby, UK. He has delivered lectures to an international audience, both academic and industrial, led industrially funded projects, and developed new commercial technologies. In addition, he has authored 62 academic publications, including book chapters, journal, and conference papers on colour gamut mapping, and also helped to create a CIE technical report detailing guidelines for the Evaluation of Mapping Algorithms.

Reviews for Color Gamut Mapping

Jan Morovic does a good job of describing the many aspects of color. The first four chapters are expansive. They present summaries of the definition of color, basic color science, categories of possible color reproduction goals, and color mapping goals. ( COLOR research and application , June 2009)
