An approach to color constancy using multiple images

摘要

A novel computational algorithm is proposed for color constancy suitable to robot vision. A robot, or a computer, can exactly memorize image information observed in the past. Then it is natural to use more than one image to achieve color constancy. In the algorithm, it is possible to recover the illumination color and the reflectance color only based on the RGB values of two objects identified on two images. It requires no specific assumption on the scene. Experiments show the validity of the proposed algorithm.
