Analysis of the color-oversaturation problem in WCGDs and promising EOTF-based solution strategies

Abstract The gamut and EOTF (Electro-Optical Transfer Function) of a display together determine its color performance. Gamut determines the range of displayable colors, and the EOTF determines the color accuracy and depth. Image reproduction often comprises two parts: the image source and the displa...

description Abstract The gamut and EOTF (Electro-Optical Transfer Function) of a display together determine its color performance. Gamut determines the range of displayable colors, and the EOTF determines the color accuracy and depth. Image reproduction often comprises two parts: the image source and the display terminal. To ensure the universality of different terminals, the image source is generally produced in a standardized gamut standard, while the terminal pursues a wider gamut and more spectacular color performance. As a widely welcomed form of display, WCGDs (Wide Color Gamut Displays) boast stunning color performance. However, certain colors in WCGDs displays are oversaturated, which is unacceptable to the human eye. This paper analyzes the oversaturation problem of WCGDs. Firstly, a display model based on EOTF and gamut parameters is established. Then the color point vector field varies with EOTF is derived and the drift of luminance and chromaticity are analyzed separately. Finally, two strategies are present to optimize the color oversaturation problem of WCGDs based on the analysis conclusions and verify its effectiveness. This paper presents a detailed analysis and possible strategy for color oversaturation in WCGDs, providing a theoretical basis for the accurate color reproduction and efficient color management of WCGDs.
