Abstract
Memory color plays an important role in the perceptual process. The aim of this research is to collect, analyze and represent memory color data for certain natural scenes objects: sky, grass and tree leaves. To emphasize reliable data collection, we consider several sources: (a) psychophysical experiment; (b) multispectral image; (c) standard image database and (d) random image collection. Moreover, we consider different daylight conditions and locations. We perform an in-depth analysis of the collected information in the CIE-xy chromaticity space and present the natural scene objects as a memory color ellipse or polygon. Finally, we demonstrate a potential use of the collected information for natural image segmentation and enhancement.
