However, it is rather difficult for us to establish the conversion models with desired approximation accuracy in the case of wide color gamut. In this paper, we propose using an optimal method to establish the color conversion models that change the RGB space of cameras to the XYZ space of a CIEXYZ system. The method makes use of the Pearson correlation coefficient to evaluate the linear correlation between the RGB values and the XYZ values in a training group so that a training group with optimal linear correlation can be obtained. By using the training group with optimal linear correlation, the color conversion models can be established, and the desired color conversion accuracy can be obtained in the whole color space. In the experiments, the wide-color-gamut sample groups were designed and then divided into different groups according to their hue angles and chromas in the CIE1976L*a*b* space, with the Pearson correlation coefficient being used to evaluate the linearity between RGB and XYZ space. Particularly, two kinds of color conversion models employing polynomial formulas with different terms and a BP artificial neural network (BP-ANN) were trained and tested with the same sample groups. The experimental results show that the color conversion errors (CIE1976L*a*b* color difference) of the polynomial transforms with the training groups divided by hue angles can be decreased efficiently.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s23167186","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,8,15]],"date-time":"2023-08-15T11:15:08Z","timestamp":1692098108000},"page":"7186","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Color Conversion of Wide-Color-Gamut Cameras Using Optimal Training Groups"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"23","author":[{"given":"Yasheng","family":"Li","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Discipline Laboratory of Color Science and Engineering, School of Optoelectronics, Beijing Institute of Technology, Beijing 100081, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ningfang","family":"Liao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Discipline Laboratory of Color Science and Engineering, School of Optoelectronics, Beijing Institute of Technology, Beijing 100081, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yumei","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Discipline Laboratory of Color Science and Engineering, School of Optoelectronics, Beijing Institute of Technology, Beijing 100081, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Hongsong","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Discipline Laboratory of Color Science and Engineering, School of Optoelectronics, Beijing Institute of Technology, Beijing 100081, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Wenmin","family":"Wu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Discipline Laboratory of Color Science and Engineering, School of Optoelectronics, Beijing Institute of Technology, Beijing 100081, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,8,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"982","DOI":"10.1002\/sdtp.15347","article-title":"Research on color conversion model of multi-primary-color display","volume":"52","author":"Sun","year":"2021","journal-title":"SID Int.
