Line 5:
A '''uniform color space''' ('''UCS''') is a color model that seeks to make the color-making attributes perceptually uniform, i.e. identical spatial distance between two colors equals identical amount of perceived color difference. A CAM under a fixed viewing condition results in a UCS; a UCS with a modeling of variable viewing conditions results in a CAM. A UCS without such modelling can still be used as a rudimentary CAM.
==Background==
==Color appearance==▼
[[Color]] originates in the mind of the observer; “objectively”, there is only the [[spectral power distribution]] of the light that meets the eye. In this sense, ''any'' color perception is subjective. However, successful attempts have been made to map the spectral power distribution of light to human sensory response in a quantifiable way. In 1931, using [[Psychophysics|psychophysical]] measurements, the [[International Commission on Illumination|International Commission on Illumination (CIE)]] created the [[CIE 1931 color space|XYZ color space]]<ref>“XYZ” refers to a color ''model'' and a color ''space'' at the same time, because the XYZ color space is the only color space that uses the XYZ color model. This differs from e.g. the RGB color model, which many color spaces (such as [[sRGB]] or [[Adobe RGB color space|Adobe RGB (1998)]]) use.</ref> which successfully models human color vision on this basic sensory level.▼
▲===Color appearance===
However, the XYZ color model presupposes specific viewing conditions (such as the retinal locus of stimulation, the luminance level of the light that meets the eye, the background behind the observed object, and the luminance level of the surrounding light). Only if all these conditions stay constant will two identical stimuli with thereby identical XYZ [[CIE 1931 color space#Tristimulus values|tristimulus]] values create an identical color ''appearance'' for a human observer. If some conditions change in one case, two identical stimuli with thereby identical XYZ tristimulus values will create ''different'' color ''appearances'' (and vice versa: two different stimuli with thereby different XYZ tristimulus values might create an ''identical'' color ''appearance'').▼

Therefore, if viewing conditions vary, the XYZ color model is not sufficient, and a color appearance model is required to model human color perception.

====Chromatic adaptation====
{{Main|Chromatic adaptation}}
[[Chromatic adaptation]] describes the ability of human color perception to abstract from the [[white point]] (or [[color temperature]]) of the illuminating light source when observing a reflective object. For the human eye, a piece of white paper looks white no matter whether the illumination is blueish or yellowish. This is the most basic and most important of all color appearance phenomena, and therefore a '''chromatic adaptation transform''' ('''CAT''') that tries to emulate this behavior is a central component of any color appearance model.▼
▲
This allows for an easy distinction between simple tristimulus-based color models and color appearance models. A simple tristimulus-based color model ignores the white point of the illuminant when it describes the surface color of an illuminated object; if the white point of the illuminant changes, so does the color of the surface as reported by the simple tristimulus-based color model. In contrast, a color appearance model takes the white point of the illuminant into account (which is why a color appearance model requires this value for its calculations); if the white point of the illuminant changes, the color of the surface as reported by the color appearance model remains the same.

Several effects change the perception of hue by a human observer:
* '''[[Bezold–Brücke shift|Bezold–Brücke hue shift]]:''' The hue of

There is an effect which changes the perception of brightness by a human observer:
* '''[[Helmholtz–Kohlrausch effect]]:''' Brightness increases with saturation. Not modeled by CIECAM02.
* Contrast appearance effects (see above), modeled by CIECAM02.

===CIELAB===
{{Main|CIELAB color space}}
In 1976, the [[International Commission on Illumination|CIE]] set out to replace the many existing, incompatible color difference models by a new, universal model for color difference. They tried to achieve this goal by creating a ''perceptually uniform'' color space (UCS), i.e. a color space where identical spatial distance between two colors equals identical amount of perceived color difference. Though they succeeded only partially, they thereby created the [[CIELAB color space|CIELAB (“L*a*b*”)]] color space which had all the necessary features to become the first color appearance model. While CIELAB is a very rudimentary color appearance model, it is one of the most widely used because it has become one of the building blocks of [[color management]] with [[ICC profile]]s. Therefore, it is basically omnipresent in digital imaging.
Line 72 ⟶ 83:
RLAB tries to improve upon the significant limitations of [[#CIELAB|CIELAB]] with a focus on image reproduction. It performs well for this task and is simple to use, but not comprehensive enough for other applications.
Unlike CIELAB, RLAB uses a proper von Kries step. It also allows for tuning the degree of adaptation by allowing a customized ''D'' value. "Discounting-the-illuminant" can still be used by using a fixed value of 1.0.<ref>{{cite book | doi=10.1002/9781118653128.ch13 | chapter=The RLAB Model | title=Color Appearance Models | date=2013 | pages=243–255 | isbn=9781119967033 }}</ref>

The IPT color appearance model excels at providing a formulation for hue where a constant hue value equals a constant perceived hue independent of the values of lightness and chroma (which is the general ideal for any color appearance model, but hard to achieve). It is therefore well-suited for [[Color management#Gamut mapping|gamut mapping]] implementations.

{{Main|CIECAM02}}
After the success of [[#CIECAM97s|CIECAM97s]], the CIE developed [[CIECAM02]] as its successor and published it in 2002. It performs better and is simpler at the same time. Apart from the rudimentary [[#CIELAB|CIELAB]] model, CIECAM02 comes closest to an internationally agreed upon “standard” for a (comprehensive) color appearance model.
