Abstract

This paper deals with the representation of spectral data so as to control the colorimetric error committed during rendering computations. These data are projected on a set of hierarchical basis functions called scaling functions leading to a representation by means of binary trees. An adaptive algorithm is proposed in which refinement and merge steps managed by an estimation of the error made in the X Y Z color space allows to control the representation of spectra
