An interactive method for color scheme considering difference of luminance

A method of color scheme for graphical images such as web pages is proposed using interactive evolutionary computing. This method can set the contrast of luminance between adjacent regions high, while setting preferable color, considering the user´s subjective criteria. Keeping the contrast of luminance high, this system enables users with color deficiencies to identify each region in graphical image. In order to design both the luminance and color totally considering human subjective criteria, interactive evolutionary computing is applied. Here, the luminance, contrast and color in the regions are represented as individuals in the genetic algorithm and are updated, so that the output design is preferable to the user. Computer simulations verify the high performance of this system.
