Abstract
The dataset contains a revised version of the psychophysical color difference Munsell Re-renotation dataset.
Munsell Re-renotation is a psychophysical dataset describing large color differences, featuring 2986 colors characterized by standard colorimetric coordinates (x, y, Y) and coordinates within the Munsell system (H, V, C).The Munsell Re-renotation iteration enhances the uniformity of the system compared to its predecessor, the Munsell Renotation dataset.
The original Munsell Re-renotation data exists as a scanned report, accessible at this http://www.rit-mcsl.org/MunsellRenotation/MunsellRe-renotations.pdf
Within this dataset, you will find the Munsell Re-renotation data converted into a machine-readable format (.csv), accompanied by three revised versions:
(1) Corrected Misprints (35 items): This version rectifies 35 misprints identified during the initial round of corrections from the scanned report.
(2) Excluded Ambiguous and Duplicate Colors (5 Items): Ambiguous and duplicate colors, totaling 5 items, have been excluded from this version.
(3) Additional Misprints Corrections (41 Items): Incorporating 41 additional misprints corrections identified during a subsequent review, along with 8 revised corrections from the initial iteration.
Additionally, the dataset includes Munsell Renotation data sourced from https://www.rit.edu/science/munsell-color-science-lab-educational-resources (file real.dat), converted to .csv format for ease of use.
