• Chromatic Adaptation

  Begin Color Appearance with chromatic adaptation: observe directly and record the conditions before interpreting the result.

• White-Point Transforms

  Within Color Appearance, build a working explanation of white-point transforms, keeping the model distinct from the appearance it describes.

• Surround

  In Color Appearance, test surround by changing one controlled variable and comparing the evidence.

• Luminance and Size

  Apply luminance and size within Color Appearance to a practical color decision, preserving both the reasoning and its constraints.

• CIECAM16 Concepts

  In Color Appearance, critique ciecam16 concepts against evidence, exceptions and failure conditions before carrying it forward.
