Another problem is that even under equal intensity, some colors are visually brighter than others. Different color representations try to overcome these problems, with varying degrees of success. It is for this reason that there are so many standard color representations. In this paper our goal is to analyze and evaluate the various color spaces in color image enhancement applications. Conversion accuracy and structural similarity measure are the two objective parameters to measure the performance of each color space. Eight most common color spaces are formulated and tested. Their conversion efficiency is computed and they are evaluated based on their performance in image enhancement applicability. Image contrast enhancement method based on multi-resolution decomposition is proposed and tested for all the color spaces. The YUV space is has perfect reconstruction while HSI performs the best in the image enhancement. © 2009 IEEE. date: 2009 official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-77949983934&doi=10.1109%2fICSAP.2009.39&partnerID=40&md5=b638933d4398ca13eec2d8a3dab3168e id_number: 10.1109/ICSAP.2009.39 full_text_status: none publication: 2009 International Conference on Signal Acquisition and Processing, ICSAP 2009 place_of_pub: Kuala Lumpur pagerange: 208-212 refereed: TRUE isbn: 9780769535944 citation: Asmare, M.H. and Asirvadam, V.S. and Iznita, L.
