Colorimetry - Part 6: CIEDE2000 Colour-difference formula (ISO/CIE 11664-6:2014)

ISO 11664-6:2014 specifies the method of calculating colour differences according to the CIEDE2000 formula.
ISO 11664-6:2014 is applicable to input values of CIELAB L*, a*, b* coordinates calculated according to ISO 11664-4:2008(E). ISO 11664-6:2014 may be used for the specification of the colour difference between two colour stimuli perceived as belonging to reflecting or transmitting objects. This includes displays, if they are being used to simulate reflecting or transmitting objects and if the tristimulus values representing the stimuli are appropriately normalized. ISO 11664-6:2014 does not apply to colour stimuli perceived as belonging to areas that appear to be emitting light as primary light sources, or that appear to be specularly reflecting such light.

Colorimétrie - Partie 6: Formule d'écart de couleur CIEDE2000 (ISO/CIE 11664-6:2014)

L'ISO 11664-6:2014 spécifie la méthode de calcul des écarts de couleur selon la formule CIEDE2000.
La norme s'applique à partir des données initiales L*, a*, b* CIELAB évaluées selon la norme ISO 11664‑4:2008(F)/CIE S 014-4/F:2007. L'ISO 11664-6:2014 s'applique à la spécification des écarts de couleur entre deux stimulus perçus comme ceux d'objets réflexifs ou transmissifs. Ceci comprend les afficheurs lumineux lorsqu'ils sont utilisés pour simuler des objets réflexifs ou transmissifs et si les composantes trichromatiques représentant les stimulus sont convenablement normalisées. L'ISO 11664-6:2014 ne s'applique pas à des stimulus perçus comme ceux de surfaces apparaissant comme émettrices de lumière, telles des sources primaires, ou qui apparaissent comme réfléchissant spéculairement de telles lumières.

Kolorimetrija - 6. del: Formula barvne razlike CIEDE2000 (ISO/CIE 11664-6:2014)

Ta mednarodni standard CIE določa metodo za izračun barvnih razlik s formulo CIEDE2000. Standard se uporablja za vhodne vrednosti koordinat CIELAB L*, a*, b*, izračunanih v skladu s standardom ISO 11664-4:2008 (E)/CIE S 014-4/E:2007. Standard se lahko uporablja za določanje barvne razlike med dvema barvnima dražljajema, za katera je zaznano, da pripadata odbojnim predmetom ali oddajnikom. To vključuje zaslone, če se uporabljajo za simulacijo odbojnega predmeta ali oddajnika in če so trikromatske vrednosti, ki predstavljajo dražljaj, ustrezno normalizirane. Standard se ne uporablja za barvne dražljaje, zaznane, da pripadajo območjem, za katere je videti, da oddajajo svetlobo kot primarni svetlobni viri ali da sijajno odsevajo takšno svetlobo.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national
standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally
carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a
technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee.
International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in
the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all
matters of electrotechnical standardization.

Foreword
International Standards produced by the Commission Internationale de l’Eclairage are
concise documents on aspects of light and lighting that require a unique definition. They are
a primary source of internationally accepted and agreed data which can be taken, essentially
unaltered, into universal standard systems.
This CIE International Standard has been prepared by CIE Technical Committee TC 1-57*. It
has been approved by the Board of Administration and Division 1 "Vision and Colour" of the
Commission Internationale de l’Eclairage and the CIE National Committees.
The following ISO and IEC committees and working groups co-operated in the preparation of
this International Standard:
IEC TC100/TA2 (Audio, video and multimedia systems)
ISO TC6 (Paper, board and pulps)
ISO TC35/SC9/WG22 (Paints and varnishes)
ISO TC38/SC1/WG7 (Textiles)

Colorimetry – Part 6: CIEDE2000 Colour-Difference Formula
Introduction
The three-dimensional colour space produced by plotting CIE tristimulus values (X, Y, Z) in
rectangular coordinates is not visually uniform, nor is the (x, y, Y) space nor the two-
dimensional CIE (x, y) chromaticity diagram. Equal distances in these spaces and diagrams
do not represent equally perceptible differences between colour stimuli. For this reason the
CIE has standardized two more-nearly uniform colour spaces (known as CIELAB and CIELUV)
whose coordinates are non-linear functions of X, Y and Z. Numerical values representing
approximately the relative magnitude of colour differences can be described by simple
Euclidean distances in these spaces or by more sophisticated colour-difference formulae that
improve the correlation with the relative perceived size of differences. The purpose of this
CIE International Standard is to define one such formula, the CIEDE2000 formula. The
Standard is based on CIE Technical Report 142-2001.
The formula is an extension of the CIE 1976 L*a*b* colour-difference formula (ISO 11664-
4:2008(E)/CIE S 014-4/E:2007) with corrections for variation in colour-difference perception
dependent on lightness, chroma, hue and chroma-hue interaction. Reference conditions
define material and viewing environment characteristics to which the formula applies.
1 Scope
This CIE International Standard specifies the method of calculating colour differences
according to the CIEDE2000 formula.
The Standard is applicable to input values of CIELAB L*, a*, b* coordinates calculated
according to ISO 11664-4:2008(E)/CIE S 014-4/E:2007. The Standard may be used for the
specification of the colour difference between two colour stimuli perceived as belonging to
reflecting or transmitting objects. This in
