The poor stability of film dyes and the decline of film photography require the development of
digitization techniques designed to acquire the full amount of color information carried by
photographic film. The spectral characteristics of the light source used during the image
acquisition extremely influence the quality of the final digital reproduction of color films; this
paper thoroughly discusses the criteria to be adopted to properly choose the light source. A
method is described to infer the analytical densities of a color film from a set of …

The Colour and Visual Computing Symposium provides a forum for fruitful discussions and
exploration of recent theoretical advances and emerging practical applications of colour and
visual information processing. Topics of particular interest to CVCS 2015 include, but are not
limited to Image and Video Quality Assessment and Enhancement, Computational Colour
and Vision Science, Imaging for Health and Medical Applications, Colour and Image
Processing in Mobile Devices, Image and Video Processing and Analysis, 3D and Multiview …
