Abstract

In order to study the observers’ categories based on different color matching functions, 28 observers were organized to match the 50 color stimuli on LED monitor. The spectral power distribution of the target and the matched colors were measured and 10 sets CMFs were used to calculate the corresponding chromatic values. The mean CIEDE2000 color difference for each of all the tested observers was calculated and the observers were assigned to different observer categories. The results indicated that most of the observers belonging to the S6, S2, CIE1964 color matching functions.
