A color gamut compression algorithm has been developed based on analysis of observer judgements in a previous interactive gamut mapping experiment. The new algorithm preserves the color relationships between the original and reproduced images, by matching the local conformations of the source and destination gamut boundaries. A core gamut is constructed inside the destination gamut boundary, within which no compression occurs, i.e., color is preserved unchanged. Colors outside the destina- tion gamut are mapped into the region between the core and destination gamut boundaries in a reversible manner. The results of an experiment are reported, indicating that the new algorithm performed well but that scope remains for further improvement.
