Olive green or chestnut brown?

- Abstract
Reflectance and spectral power functions are poor predictors of color experiences. Only in completely relativized conditions (single observer, non-metameric set of stimuli, and single set of viewing conditions) is the relationship close. Variation in reflectance of Munsell chips experienced by color-normal observers as having a unique green hue encompasses approximately sixty percent of the complete range of hues falling under the category "green"; and in recent determinations of unique hues, ranges of yellow and green as well as green and blue unique hues overlap.
