The CVC colour group focuses its research in areas related to computational colour within computer vision. Our long term objective is to create computer algorithms that simulate human perception and categorisation of colour. To achieve this aim, we study colour as a visual cue in its context. Our main research lines are colour constancy, induction, saliency, texture,segmentation and naming.

High Dynamic Range We try to perform a High Dynamic Range compression of color images using perceptual criterias.

Chromatic Induction We propose a computational model that reprodce chromatic induction processes unifying chromatic assimilation and chromatic contrast into a single perceptual process.

Bottom-up visual saliency In this project, we obtain saliency maps from color images using perceptual characteristics.

Color attention for object recognition We propose a novel image representation where color attention is used to sample the shape description of the image.

Parametric model for Color Naming A full parametric model has been defined on the CIE lab space. Each of the 11 basic colour categories is modelled with a fuzzy set characterized by a combination of sigmoids as membership functions.
