Abstract
The antagonistic mechanism of human color vision is the physiological characteristics of the human visual system. The processing of spatial color information in visual color channels is opposite, which presents that the black-white opposition color channel, the red-green opponent color channel and the yellow-blue opposition color channel are all multi-scale. This paper aims to study the algorithm of the antagonistic mechanism of human color vision. Based on the theory of the visual receptive fields, seven filter operators associated with the human observation condition are designed; the mapping relation between these operators and human visual observation scale is established. The paper put forward to an algorithm for simulating the antagonistic mechanism of human color vision, which is carried out in visual opposite color space. The experiment results show that the algorithm has the ability of color constancy prediction, and the color reduction accuracy is not lower than the automatic white balance processing result of the professional digital SLR camera.
