Abstract

That adaptation state of the observer has an important influence on color discrimination was revealed in MacAdam’s classical experiments. MacAdam represented his results on the CIE diagram with equal discriminability ellipses. The ellipses, which showed how discrimination varied in different color directions when the observer is adapted at various points in color space, varied in a complex way.
