Colour Science Graduate, UK

4 August 2009

I have just graduated from Department of Colour Science (University of Leeds, UK).  I am sophisticated with  colour and imaging science, including colour theory, imaging quality, imaging evaluation, colour psychology, colour emotion (colour preference, colour harmony), and colour measurement.  I have also done many psychophysical experiments to investigate the people's emotion on colour appearance and image quality.
