Abstract | Svaki dio flore ima svoju vrijednost apsorpcije svjetlosti u području vidljivog spektra.
Otkrićem da procesne boje imaju razdvojenost u vidljivom i blisko infracrvenom (eng. NIR -
Near InfraRed) dijelu spektra, postavlja se tvrdnja da je izvediva reprodukcija koja sadrži
vlastite vrijednosti flore za oba područja. U radu se razvija metoda kojom iz flore uzimamo
njenu NIR informaciju.
Cilj istraživanja je postizanje istog spektrograma flore i njene reprodukcije u vidljivom i
bliskom infracrvenom spektru. Priroda ima vlastiti blisko infracrveni sadržaj pa je cilj istražiti
kako izgledaju svojstva apsorpcije flore izvan vidljivog područja, uz definiranje svih
parametara u procesu grafičke reprodukcije flore s blizancima procesnih bojila u svrhu
dobivanja kvalitetnije reprodukcije.
Mjerenja su usmjerena prema izvođenju receptura bojila za reprodukciju flore te
optimalizaciju broja blizanaca za kvalitetan otisak u vidljivom i NIR spektru. Istraživanja su
se provodila u laboratoriju za forenzička ispitivanja materijala i boje, na uređaju za spektralnu
digitalnu forenziku. Spektrofotometrijskom metodom mjerenja dobiva se kontrola nad
segmentom testiranja uzorka koji nije vidljiv golim okom, a interval snimanja proteže se od
400 do 1000 nm čime smo obuhvatili vidljivi i blisko infracrveni dio spektra. Kao dodatna
kontrola dobivenih vrijednosti mjerena je CIE L*a*b* vrijednost uzorka te se za svaku
eksperimentalnu iteraciju računala ΔE vrijednost, dok se nije postigla vrijednost manja od tri
za pojedini blizanac. Teorija blizanaca boje razvijena je s primjenom na algoritam za spajanje
dviju slika vidljivog i blisko infracrvenog spektra. Uspješnim izvođenjem matematičkog
modela dobivene su vrijednosti blizanaca bojila iz flore koje su integrirane u postojeći
algoritam, čime je postignuto proširenje i unapređenje INFRAREDESIGN® teorije za prikaz
flore, a iz postignutih rezultata razvijene su metode koje vjerodostojno simuliraju tonove
dobivene mjerenjem vrijednosti flore u NIR spektru. Time se postiže da nova grafička
reprodukcija ima isti odaziv u NIR području, kao i original, flora. |
Abstract (english) | Each part of flora has its own light absorption value in the visible spectrum area. With
discovery that process colors are separated in visible and near-infrared (NIR - Near InfraRed)
part of the spectrum, a claim is being made that the reproduction that contains it’s own flora
values for both areas is feasible. In this paper a method is being developed by which NIR
information is being taken from flora.
Measurements are aimed at producing dye recipes for flora reproduction and optimizing the
number of twins for quality print in visible and NIR spectrum. The research was conducted in
the laboratory for forensic examinations of materials and colors, on a digital spectral device.
With the spectrophotometric method of measurement, we gain control over the test sample
segment that is not visible to the naked eye, and the recording intervals extend from 400 to
1000 nm, which encompasses the visible and near-infrared part of the spectrum. As an
additional control of the obtained values, the CIE L*a*b* value of the sample was measured,
and for each experimental iteration a ΔE value was calculated until a value less than three for
each twin was reached.
The color twin theory was developed with application to an algorithm for merging two
images of the visible and near-infrared spectrum. By successfully formulating the
mathematical model, the values of dye twins from flora were obtained and integrated into the
existing algorithm, thus expanding, and improving the INFRAREDESIGN® theory for flora
representation from the collected data in the NIR spectrum. This ensures that the new graphic
reproduction has the same response in the NIR area as the original, flora.
The purpose of the research
Purpose of this study is to achieve the same spectrogram of flora and its reproduction in the
visible near infrared spectrum. Nature has its own near infrared content, so the purpose is to
investigate what do absorption properties for flora outside visible spectrum look like, while
defining every parameter in the process of graphic reproduction of flora with twins of process
dyes in order to obtain reproduction of better quality.Research Hypotheses
1. CMYK process colors are adequate to simulate all colors of the visible spectrum,
including infrared light absorption from flora.
2. By merging of two photographs in the visible and near infrared spectrum we can
formulated an algorithm that credibly simulates all twin colors from the middle of the
tonal spectrum that were obtained by measuring flora in the range from 400 to 1000
nm.
3. Graphic reproduction of flora with process dyes can be fabricated so that the range of
coloring in the printing technique allows the same absorption in the visible and near
infrared spectrum as in nature.
Scientific contribution of the proposed research
Improving INFRAREDESIGN® technology for realistic representation and flora printing with
the extension of the dye twin theory and its application to an algorithm for merging two
images of the visible and near-infrared part of the spectrum. Numerous measurements of flora
samples were conducted, and with the information from spectrophotometric recordings of the
samples information on the absorption of flora in both spectrums was obtained.
Experimental iterations were conducted on samples of the obtained dye twins until the value
of the colorimetric difference between the individual twins fell below three. From obtained
values of the dye twins that reproduce the color of the flora a database of the absorption
properties of the flora samples was created. The database contains 59 twin dyes prepared for
graphic reproduction of flora, which made this dissertation even more valuable and
additionally contributed to the development of graphic technology.
A new mathematical model and algorithm for merging visible and near-infrared images and
for determining the coverage distribution of dye process components in order to perform dual
reproduction of flora was formulated. The development of an algorithmic solution for
merging two images of different spectrum with an associated set of dye twins followed aproperly performed image deformation in the NIR area. Seventeen dye twins were selected
for this part of the experiment and undertaken for further analysis.
Development of the algorithm required the formulation of a mathematical model which was
then integrated into the existing image merging algorithm. The mathematical model was
formulated by regression analysis of the obtained values from the flora for K = 36. To
perform mathematical interpolation, we created a twin of the same color shade as X0 where K
= 0, with a given value of K = 36, and it is represented by X36.
The analysis defined the interdependence of these experimental values, and a formula that
would perform mathematical interpolation algorithmically for the same pixel positions in the
image for the visible region and the NIR region of the spectrum was derived. By successfully
performing mathematical interpolation, the values of the dye twins from the flora were
obtained and integrated into the existing algorithm, thus achieving the expansion and
improvement of INFRAREDESIGN® technology and achieving the original scientific
contribution.
New methods of graphical reproduction of flora have been developed that include the visible
and near-infrared spectrum with the identification of the realistic state of the flora in the
extended light range. As a result of all research in this paper, a graphical reproduction of the
flora with twins of process dyes in the visible and near-infrared spectrum was produced.
The difference between standard flora reproduction and dual flora reproduction in the visible
and NIR areas of the spectrum was experimentally determined. Although there is almost no
noticeable difference in the visible part, the image in the NIR part shows a large deviation in
the reproduction of this hidden area of the spectrum.
Successful reproduction of flora in two spectral areas finds its greatest application in the
production of camouflage uniforms. And with the help of the created database that has
absorption properties of flora samples, a uniform for all seasons can now be created. |
