Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.INTRODUCTIONRecent advances in optics, electronics and documentary standard have resulted in a proliferation ofinstrumen

3、ts for the measurement of color and appearance of materials and objects. These instrumentspossess very good performance but there has been little progress toward standardizing the terminologyand procedures to quantify that performance. Therefore, the commercial literature and even somedocumentary st

Significance and Use5.1 In todays commerce, instrument makers and instrument users must deal with a large array of bench-top and port

26、ablecolor-measuring instruments, many with different geometric and spectral characteristics. At the same time, manufacturers ofcolored goods are adopting quality management systems that require periodic verification of the performance of the instrumentsthat are critical to the quality of the final p

27、roduct. The technology involved in optics and electro-optics has progressed greatly overthe last decade. The result has been a generation of instruments that are both more affordable and higher in performance. Whathad been a tool for the research laboratory is now available to the retail point of sa

28、le, to manufacturing, to design and to corporatecommunications. New documentary standards have been published that encourage the use of colorimeters, spectrocolorimeters,and colorimetric spetrometers in applications previously dominated by visual expertise or by filter densitometers.7 Therefore, it

It also describes some of the material standardsrequired to assess the performance of a color-measuring instrument and suggests some tests and test reports to aid in verifying theperformance of the instrument relative to its intended application.6. Instrument Performance Parameters6.1 Repeatabili

33、tyis generally the most important specification in a color-measuring instrument. Colorimetry is primarily arelative or differential measurement, not an absolute measurement. In colorimetry, there is always a standard and a trial specimen.The standard may be a real physical specimen or it may be a se

34、t of theoretical target values. The trial is usually similar to thestandard in both appearance and spectral nature. Thus, industrial colorimetry is generally a test of how well the instrument repeatsits readings of the same or nearly the same specimen over a period of minutes, hours, days, and weeks

35、.6.1.1 The ISO VIM defines repeatability as a measure of the random error of a reading and assumes that the sample standarddeviation is an estimate of repeatability. Repeatability is further defined as the standard deviation of a set of measurements takenover a specified time period by a single oper

36、ator, on a single instrument with a single specimen. This definition is similar to thatin Terminology E284, except that the ISO explicitly defines the metric of “closeness of agreement” as the sample standarddeviation. Since color is a multidimensional property of a material, repeatability should be

37、 reported in terms of themultidimensional variancecovariance matrix.6.1.2 The time period over which the readings are collected must be specified and is often qualitatively described as “short,”“medium,” or “long.” The definitions of these time frames do not overlap. This is intentional, providing c

38、learly defined milestonesin the temporal stability of test results.6.1.2.1 For the purposes of colorimetry, “short” is normally the time required to collect a set of 30 readings, taken as fast asthe instrument will allow. The actual time will vary as a function of lamp and power supply characteristi

39、cs but should be less thanone hour.6.1.2.2 “Medium” term is normally defined as, at least the period of one work shift (8 h) but less than three work shifts (oneday).6.1.2.3 “Long” term is open ended but is often described as any set readings taken over a period of at least 4 to 8 weeks. Thelongest

40、known reported study described readings taken over a period of 314 years.86.2 Reproducibility is the second most important specification in a color-measuring instrument. According to TerminologyE284, reproducibility is the closeness of agreement of the results of measurements in which one or more of

41、 the measurementparameters have been systematically changed. Thus the sample is different, the procedures or instrument are different, or the timeframe is very long. The increase of disorder over a very long time changes the instrument systematically and the set of readingsreally compares a “young”

42、instrument with an “old” instrument.6.2.1 The ISO VIM defines reproducibility as the closeness of agreement of the results of measurements in which either the timeframe is very long, in which the operator changes, the instrument changes, or the measurement conditions change. ISO againrecommends esti

43、mating this with a standard deviation. Reproducibility is further defined as the standard deviation of a set ofmeasurements taken over a specified period of time by a single operator, on a single instrument with a single specimen. Thisdefinition is similar to that in Terminology E284, except that th

44、e ISO again, explicitly defines the metric of “closeness ofagreement” as the sample standard deviation. Again, since color is a multidimensional property of a material, reproducibilityshould be reported in terms of the multidimensional variancecovariance matrix.6.2.2 The time period over which the r

45、eadings are collected must be specified. For the purposes of colorimetry, “long” termrepeatability is the most common and important type of reproducibility. Repeatability and reproducibility have traditionally beenevaluated in colorimetry by comparing the color differences of a set of readings to a

46、single reading or to the average of the set ofreadings.6.3 Inter-Instrument Agreement, as defined in 3.3.2, describes the reproducibility between two or more instruments, of identicaldesign. The ISO has no definition or description of such a concept. This is because in most test results, a method or

47、 instrumentdependent bias can be assessed. In this situation, such a test measures the consistency of the design and manufacturing process.Within the technical description of the standard geometric and spectral parameters for the measurement of diffuse reflectance factorand color, a significant amou

48、nt of latitude exists. This latitude results in a random amount of bias. For a given design, amanufacturer may reduce the random bias, often to a level less than the stability of reference materials. The most common formof test for inter-model instrument agreement is pairwise color difference assess

49、ment of a series of specimens. Various parametersare reported in the literature including the average color difference, the maximum color difference, the typical color difference, theRMS color difference or the MCDM mean color difference from the mean, taking the average of all instruments as the standardand the other as the test instrument. Using pairs of instruments and materials one can derive a multivariate confidence intervalagainst the value 0.0 difference and then test individual components to determine which attribute (lightness, chroma, hue) are the8 Ric
