Abstract:

In current textile color management, measurement errors are found to cause problems such as the color shade jump and inversion. In this research, a multi-directional curve fitting algorithm combined with the weight coefficient corresponding to each directional curve was proposed to optimize the bad points with excessive error in the measurement data. By analyzing the application effect of the optimization method through objective and subjective evaluation, it is found that the multi-directional curve fitting optimization algorithm works well with data having large errors, and it has little impact on other normal data, therefore effectively reducing the impact of the error from color chart measurement data. The overall average color difference of the International Color Consortium (ICC) Profile generated by the optimization is reduced by 12.30%. The average color difference of the difficult colors is reduced by 16.67%, and the average color difference of the neutral gray is reduced by 16.74%. During the soft proofing process, the proof color difference of the ICC Profile generated after optimization is also smaller than that before optimization.

Key words: textile color management, color measurement, multi-directional curve fitting, data optimization, average color difference, measurement error
