For many applications, not all of these dimensions are actually necessary, and a few values are enough to measure and/or process the pixel with a very good accuracy. In this work, we introduce a new strategy to reduce the dimensionality of spectral images ranging in the visible wavelengths, for purposes of color management. We define a new Interim Connection Space (ICS) that contains only five dimensions, and show that it has numerous advantages over state-of-the-art ICS such as LabPQR. In particular, it allows for a better spectral reconstruction accuracy.encolor managementdimension reductionBusiness Field: Virtual engineeringBusiness Field: Visual decision supportResearch Line: Computer graphics (CG)Research Line: Computer vision (CV)Research Line: Modeling (MOD)conference paper
