评论： Elvin 2013-11-12

I just want to ask for a help on how am I going to do this project. What I'm trying to do is take a pic of a leaf and then compare its color with a standard chart. The char that I'll be using is this:

Here are my questions:

1. What method should I use in comparing the captured image with this standard one? Should I get the histogram of each shades of green in the chart and then compare it with the histogram of the captured image?

2. If my captured picture looks like in the picture below, what method should I use so that it only process the leaf? I mean, as you can see the image, the only leaf that I'm interested is the one in the middle. What should I do to remove those images that I'm not interested with?

Thank you for the help. :)

You need to calculate the Delta E, which is the color difference. See my Delta E demo in my File Exchange. http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/?term=authorid%3A31862

To find the leaf, you will have to outline it with imfreehand() or roipolyold(). There is no way of knowing which leaf in the picture you want to examine the color of.

Of course you will have to hold your sample in the field of view so that it will have the same lighting (color and intensity) as the leaf, because as you know, you can get almost whatever RGB values you want out of your camera if you have different exposure levels, color of lighting, etc.

It's only valid if the chart is snapped at the same time and place as the grass image of course. If you just snap a picture of the chart in your lab, and go out to the field, the chart and the grass will have different light levels and lighting colors.

If I were you I'd use makecform() to convert the RGb into lab and then use the formula for delta E

deltaE = sqrt(deltaL^2 + deltaA^2 + deltaB^2);

to get the deltaE. Even though it's only the book formula and not actually calibrated it's better than nothing. Delta E is the industry standard for color difference and you should use it, just be sure to warn everyone you're not calibrated to a spectrophotometer and are just using book formulas.

So get the lab for each of the green patches on the chart, and the lab of the grass blade region, and see which is closest.

deltaL = L - Lgrass; % Between chart and grass for all 6 L's.  L is an array of 6.
deltaA = A - Agrass; % Between chart and grass for all 6 A's.
deltaB = B - Bgrass; % Between chart and grass for all 6 B's.
deltaEs = sqrt(deltaL.^2 + deltaA.^2 + deltaB.^2);
[sortedDeltaEs, sortIndexes] = sort(deltaEs, 'ascend');
% Get the color chip it most closely matches.
closestChartIndex = sortIndexes(1);

What is a soft copy? You still need to have a hard copy physical chart in the field of view.

By soft copy, I mean the one they used in making the LCC in computer before manufacturing it.
