This paper presents a novel Logit-Logistic Fuzzy Color Constancy (LLFCC) algorithm and its variants for dynamic color object recognition. Contrary to existing color constancy algorithms, the proposed scheme focuses on manipulating a color locus depicting the colors of an object, and not stabilizing the whole image appearance per se. In this paper, a new set of adaptive contrast manipulation operators is introduced and utilized in conjunction with a fuzzy inference system. Moreover, a new perspective in extracting color descriptors of an object from the rg-chromaticity space is presented. Such color descriptors allow for the reduction of the effects of brightness/darkness and at the same time adhere to human perception of colors. The proposed scheme tremendously cuts processing time by simultaneously compensating for the effects of a multitude of factors that plague the scene of traversal, eliminating the need for image pre-processing steps. Experiment results attest to its robustness in scenes with multiple white light sources, spatially varying illumination intensities, varying object position, and presence of highlights.

Color images depend on the color of the capture illuminant and object reflectance. As such image colors are not stable features for object recognition, however stability is necessary since perceived colors (the colors we see) are illuminant independent and do correlate with object identity. Before the colors in images can be compared, they must first be preprocessed to remove the effect of illumination. Two types of preprocessing have been proposed: first, run a color constancy algorithm or second apply an invariant normalization. In color constancy preprocessing the illuminant color is estimated and then, at a second stage, the image colors are corrected to remove color bias due to illumination. In color invariant normalization image RGBs are redescribed, in an illuminant independent way, relative to the context in which they are seen (e.g. RGBs might be divided by a local RGB average). In theory the color constancy approach is superior since it works in a scene independently: color invariant normalization can be calculated post-color constancy but the converse is not true. However, in practice color invariant normalization usually supports better indexing. In this paper we ask whether color constancy algorithms will ever deliver better indexing than color normalization. The main result of this paper is to demonstrate equivalence between color constancy and color invariant computation. The equivalence is empirically derived based on color object recognition experiments. colorful objects are imaged under several different colors of light. To remove dependency due to illumination these images are preprocessed using either a perfect color constancy algorithm or the comprehensive color image normalization. In the perfect color constancy algorithm the illuminant is measured rather than estimated. The import of this is that the perfect color constancy algorithm can determine the actual illuminant without error and so bounds the performance of all existing and future algorithms. Post-color constancy or color normalization processing, the color content is used as cue for object recognition. Counter-intuitively perfect color constancy does not support perfect recognition. In comparison the color invariant normalization does deliver near-perfect recognition. That the color constancy approach fails implies that the scene effective illuminant is different from the measured illuminant. This explanation has merit since it is well known that color constancy is more difficult in the presence of physical processes such as fluorescence and mutual illumination. Thus, in a second experiment, image colors are corrected based on a scene dependent "effective illuminant". Here, color constancy preprocessing facilitates near-perfect recognition. Of course, if the effective light is scene dependent then optimal color constancy processing is also scene dependent and so, is equally a color invariant normalization.

In this paper, we realize object recognition and localization in a real time based on appearance features of object. For object recognition, we proposed to use global feauture (color) of images, and with an improved color image segmentation algorithm to realize threshold segmentation based on pixels in the image’s HSV color model by using the tool OpenCV, so we can realize the special color object recognition. Further the object can be localized with the ground constrained method by using the camera perspective geometry model. In the lab conditions, we realized single color object recognition and localization by transplanting the algorithm into Amigobots mobile robot and proved this method is simple, effective and real-time.
