Abstract

This study introduces a new model and a new mathematical formulation describing the light scattering and ink spreading phenomena in printing. The new model generalizes the classical Kubelka-Munk theory, and unifies it with the Neugebauer model within a single mathematical framework based on matrices. Results like the Saunderson correction, the Clapper-Yule equation, the Murray-Davis relation and the Williams-Clapper equation are shown to be particular cases of the new model. Using this new theoretical tool, the reflection spectra of 100 samples printed on high quality paper by two different ink-jet printers were computed with an average prediction error of about ΔE = 2.1 in CIELAB.

Primary color

A set of primary colors or primary colours (see spelling differences) consists of colorants or colored lights that can be mixed in varying amounts to produce a gamut of colors. This is the essential method used to create the perception of a broad range of colors in, e.g., electronic displays, color printing, and paintings. Perceptions associated with a given combination of primary colors can be predicted by an appropriate mixing model (e.g., additive, subtractive) that reflects the physics of how light interacts with physical media, and ultimately the retina.

Color theory

In the visual arts, color theory is the body of practical guidance for color mixing and the visual effects of a specific color combination. Color terminology based on the color wheel and its geometry separates colors into primary color, secondary color, and tertiary color. The understanding of color theory dates to antiquity. Aristotle (d. 322 BCE) and Claudius Ptolemy (d. 168 CE) already discussed which and how colors can be produced by mixing other colors. The influence of light on color was investigated and revealed further by al-Kindi (d.

Mathematical formulation of quantum mechanics

The mathematical formulations of quantum mechanics are those mathematical formalisms that permit a rigorous description of quantum mechanics. This mathematical formalism uses mainly a part of functional analysis, especially Hilbert spaces, which are a kind of linear space. Such are distinguished from mathematical formalisms for physics theories developed prior to the early 1900s by the use of abstract mathematical structures, such as infinite-dimensional Hilbert spaces (L2 space mainly), and operators on these spaces.
