A new chapter on colour change modelling and reconstruction has been published in Chromatic Visions (Lecture Notes in Computer Science, Springer), with contributions from the Photonics for Heritage Science (PhoHS) group of IESL-FORTH and international collaborators.

The chapter, entitled “Methods and Workflows for Colour Change Modelling and Reconstruction,” is authored by Y. Arteaga, C. Barandoni, L. Burgio, D. Buti, I.-M. Ciortan, B. Doherty, J. Y. Hardeberg, C. Langford, D. Magrini, L. Monico, C. Pinto, I. C. Anca Sandu, F. Selka, S. N. Sinha, P. Siozos, S. Sotiropoulou, and G. Trumpy.

This publication presents comprehensive methodological frameworks and computational workflows for modelling and reconstructing colour change phenomena in cultural heritage materials. The proposed approaches integrate imaging, data processing, and predictive modelling techniques, providing a scalable and reproducible framework for studying chromatic alterations in artworks and heritage objects. The work contributes to advancing digital heritage science by establishing structured workflows that support interdisciplinary research in conservation, imaging science, and computer vision.

The study was conducted by an international consortium of researchers from multiple European institutions, combining expertise in heritage science, colour science, computer vision, and digital humanities. The research benefited from collaborative infrastructures and funding support from European and national research programmes.
