• Title: Designing a physically-feasible colour filter to make a camera more colorimetric
• Authors: Yuteng Zhu
• Abstract summary: We extend the Luther-condition filter optimisation method to allow us to incorporate the smoothness and transmittance bounds of the recovered filter. Experiments demonstrate that we can find physically realisable filters which are smooth and reasonably transmissive with which the effective "camera+filter" becomes significantly more colorimetric.

• Abstract: Previously, a method has been developed to find the best colour filter for a given camera which results in the new effective camera sensitivities that best meet the Luther condition. That is, the new sensitivities are approximately linearly related to the XYZ colour matching functions. However, with no constraint, the filter derived from this Luther-condition based optimisation can be rather non-smooth and transmit very little light which are impractical for fabrication. In this paper, we extend the Luther-condition filter optimisation method to allow us to incorporate both the smoothness and transmittance bounds of the recovered filter which are key practical concerns. Experiments demonstrate that we can find physically realisable filters which are smooth and reasonably transmissive with which the effective "camera+filter" becomes significantly more colorimetric.

  NeRFs can be optimized to obtain high-fidelity 3D scene reconstructions of objects and large-scale scenes. Extrinsic and intrinsic camera parameters are usually estimated using Structure-from-Motion (SfM) methods as a pre-processing step to NeRF. We propose using a proxy problem to compute a whitening transform that eliminates the correlation between camera parameters and normalizes their effects.

• Unifying Optimization Methods for Color Filter Design [3.8073142980733]
  Through optimization we can solve for a filter that when the camera views the world through this filter, it is more colorimetric. Previous work solved for the filter that best satisfied the Luther condition: the camera spectral sensitivities after filtering were approximately a linear transform from the CIE XYZ color matching functions. A more recent method optimized for the filter that maximized the Vora-Value (a measure which relates to the closeness of the vector spaces spanned by the camera sensors and human vision sensors).

• Designing a Color Filter via Optimization of Vora-Value for Making a Camera more Colorimetric [14.097215740999408]
  The Luther condition states that if the spectral sensitivity responses of a camera are a linear transform from the color matching functions of the human visual system, the camera is colorimetric. Previous work proposed to solve for a filter which, when placed in front of a camera, results in sensitivities that best satisfy the Luther condition. This paper begins with the observation that the cone fundamentals, XYZ color matching functions or any linear combination thereof span the same 3-dimensional subspace.
