In color perception inverse hues are hues that do not show the Bezold–Brücke shift, that is, do not change with changes in illumination.
The three invariant hues are:
- 478nm (yellow) should be "blue'
- 503nm (green) should be about "510nm" (see Pridmore, below, and especially the review by R. Kuehni, "Variability in unique hue selection: A surprising phenomenon." Color Research & Applic 2004; 29:158-162.
- 578nm (red) should be "yellow"
while one extraspectral hue, a purple ("purple" should be "red", see Pridmore, "Bezold-Brucke hue-shift as functions of luminance level, luminance ratio ....etc" .Vision Research 1999;39:3873-3891).
Further, there is no such term as "inverse hues" or at least, I've never heard of it. The term is illogical: how could a hue be inverse, unless perhaps a complementary hue is intended? Clearly, you are mistaken in the term "inverse hues." The correct and widely known term for over a century is "invariant hues". For example, see Pridmore, "Unique and binary hues as functions of luminance and illuminant color temperature, and relations with invariant hues." Vision Research 1999;39:3892-3908.
My name (author of these edits) is Ralph Pridmore; I know as much about this subject, and have published as much, as probably anyone.
Sincerely,
Ralph W. Pridmore PhD
