Abstract

More than one hundred years ago, the von Kries model was developed for a description of the chromatic adaptation phenomena of the human visual system. Various chromatic adaptation models based on the von Kries model have been developed. However, the condition in the wavelength range for which the model works has never been established. Theorems derived for subtractive color mixture problems are applied here to this important issue.
