Abstract :
We propose a color modification scheme for still images in order to realize barrier-free color vision in the IT society. Based on the knowledge of Kondo´s anomalous color vision model, we quantify the degree of color discrimination among colors in a given image by the anomalous vision people, and modify the pixel colors to improve the discrimination by them while keeping naturalness of the image.
