Perceptual dimensions of wood materials. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Vis, 2023
Materials exhibit an extraordinary range of visual appearances. Characterising and quantifying appearance is important not only for basic research on perceptual mechanisms, but also for computer graphics and a wide range of industrial applications. While methods exist for capturing and representing the optical properties of materials and how they vary ...
