The optimum color proofing system with the similar colorants to the printing system has to be used in high quality offset color printing. And so, the evaluation on color reproduction properties of the colorants for proofer and press are very important. In this paper, the optimum color proofing method is recommended by means of colorimeric comparative evaluation on the color reproduction properties such as color gamut, color difference, hue error of the colorants for the proofing system of CRT monitor, inkjet printer, dye sublimation type digital proofer, and the actual printing system of offset press.

In this study, the color reproduction algorithm considering both of luminace and chromaticity of the background light is presented and tested to BT-H 1450 monitor(Panasonic). In the case of neglecting the background effect, the Macbeth ColorChecker's 24 colors are reproduced with the average color difference ${\Delta}E_{ab}^{*}$ more than 9.0. By using this method, the average color difference ${\Delta}E_{ab}^{*}$ is decreased less than 1.0. From this study, we can find that both of luminance and chromaticity of background light are very important factors in the color reproduction on a CRT display.

In Graphic art reproduction process it is important to realize that which set of inks and their densities (film thickness) and which set of halftone positive should be aimed at. in order to meet the demand for good color reproduction. There have been various studies to calculation the color reproduction of the graphic arts. however. these study were based on the assumed characteristics of the materials. In this study the relationship between wet-trapping (wet on wet-printing) and increases of ink layer and printing sequence are examined.

The color matching of the paints are difficults for the three items of the issues, i.e., the variation of surroundings, the form of vane, and the rotative velocities of the vane. A new color matching system improved to the three items of the issues has constructed by the present study.

In this paper, we propose a system to adjust specific color of image. The HSV of R/Y/G/C/B/M regions can be modified individually. The color reproduction can be preferred color, true color, or stander color for customer requirement.

Color reproduction of small LCD display is quite different from that of standard CRT due to the difference of physical, electrical, and optical characteristics. In this paper, we propose a simple and practical method using gamma and CCT correction for improvement of color reproduction on a small LCD display. First, we investigate characteristics of a small LCD display such as brightness, uniformity, color temperature, white and black balance, and nonlinear gamma. And, we also analyze color reproduction region and CCT trajectory according to LCD's input levels. Finally, the optimum gamma and CCT compensation method using LUT is proposed, and our proposed method was realized at mobile phone without hardware modification. In the experimental results, the result image of proposed algorithm is more close to standard color.

On the process of cross-media color reproduction, a key feature is the use of gamut mapping techniques to adjust the different color gamuts between displays and printers. Even though a number of GMAs have been published, but there are no method satisfactory enough for more exect color reproduction. In this paper, the gamut mapping methods of nearest point clipping(NPC), centroid clipping (SLIN), straight clipping and cusp clipping(CUSP) were tested and analyzed with color difference, and a new gamut mapping algorithm based on variable anchor point method was proposed.

In a color image, people and especially facial patterns are important and interesting visual objects. Thus, effective skin color reproduction is essential, as skin color is a key memory color in color application systems. Previous studies suggested skin color reproduction by mapping only to the center value of preferred skin region. However, it is not suitable to determine one preference color because preference color from the observer's preference test is not dominant. In this paper, skin color reproduction using multiple preferred skin colors for each race is proposed. The proposed method first defines multiple preferred skin colors for each race according to their luminance level. After that, skin region is detected in an image. The race is then selected by calculating distance between average chromaticity of detected region and that of each racial skin from a database to assign preferred skin color for each race. Next, each corresponding preferred skin color is determined for each selected race. Finally, input skin color is proportionally mapped toward preferred skin color according to the difference between the input skin color and the preferred skin color for a smoothly reproduced skin color. In the experimental results, the proposed method gives better color correction on the objective and subjective evaluation than the previous methods.

Web offset newspaper prints is the most widely used printing process in domestic printing industry, but there are no industry-wide specifications for press control to assure consistent quality across newspaper printing plants. As newspaper printing becomes more of a commodity and less of an art, it is necessary to develop the print quality specification standard suitable for Korea web offset newspaper printing field. There are a few commonly employed printing standards such as, SNAP(Specification for Non-Heatset Publication) of the US, IFRA(INCA-FIEJ Research Association), J-color (Japan printing machinery association). And there exists KS for domestic standards, however, since it has been directly imported from ISO standards, there are discrepancies in printing materials and media. This paper aims to examine the color reproduction quality of domestic web offset newspaper prints by comparing with foreign standards. Printing experiments on this study have been performed at one of the domestic newspaper printing companies. The color reproduction properties of the web offset newspaper prints are measured by means of densitometry and colorimetry. These measures are evaluated comapratively with the international standards by means of analyzing, the major factors that determine the color reproduction quality of web offset newspapar prints.
