伪彩色图像在许多信号处理应用中用于将信号特性表示为两个独立变量（例如时间和频率）的函数。本文描述了一种色标，可以用来明确地表示这些图像在印刷灰度出版物以及全色电子出版物。本文中增强了彩色查看时的图像分辨率。该色标还允许常见类型色盲的人正确解释，约占男性人口的10%和女性人口的1%。虽然可以利用针对手头上的特定图像设计的色标来获得更好的分辨率，但是所提出的色标在用户没有时间或资源来针对特定图像定制色标的许多应用中工作良好。所提出的色标也很容易实现，并且具有直观的解释，因为它循环通过一系列大致类似于熟悉的彩虹的色调。
Pseudocolored images are used in many signal processing applications to represent signal properties as a function of two independent variables, such as time and frequency. This paper describes a color scale that can be used to unambiguously represent these images in printed gray-scale publications as well as full color electronic publications. The image resolution when viewed in color is enhanced in this article. This color scale also allows for correct interpretation by people with common types of color blindness, which accounts for approximately 10% of the male population and 1% of the female population. While it may be possible to obtain a better resolution with a color scale that is designed for a particular image on hand, the proposed color scale works well in many applications where the user does not have the time or resources to tailor the color scale to a specific image. The proposed color scale is also easy to implement and has an intuitive interpretation in that it cycles through a sequence of hues that roughly resembles the familiar rainbow.
