Color has been scientifically investigated by linking color appearance to colorimetric
measurements of the light that enters the eye. However, the main purpose of color …

The origin of colour categories and their relationship to colour perception have been the
prime example for testing the influence of language on perception and thought (Sapir-Whorf …

We investigated several sensory and cognitive determinants of colour constancy across 40
illumination hues. In the first experiment, we measured colour naming for the illumination …

This study investigated categorical perception for unique hues in order to establish a
relationship between color appearance, color discrimination, and low-level (second-stage) …

This study investigates systematic individual differences in the way observers perceive
different kinds of surface properties and their relationship to the dress, which shows striking …

The colors of two surfaces might appear exactly alike under one illuminant while varying
under others. This is due to the metamerism phenomenon in which physically distinct …

The ability to keep perception constant despite environmental changes of illumination,
viewing angle, or distance is a key feature of perception. Here, we investigated how …

Colorfulness and saturation have been neglected in research on color appearance and
color naming. Perceptual particularities, such as cross-cultural stability,“focality,”“uniqueness …

Color constancy denotes the ability to assign a particular and stable color percept to an
object, irrespective of its surroundings and illumination. The light reaching the eye …

This study investigates human expectations towards naturalistic colour changes under
varying illuminations. Understanding colour expectations is key to both scientific research on …
