# Illuminant estimation on KAUST-MIE Source: [Illuminant estimation on KAUST-MIE]() Collection index: [llms.txt]() Data updated: 2026-05-14T09:15:48.212Z Evaluation of Illuminant Estimation performance using the KAUST-MIE dataset, reporting Mean angular error (MAE) metrics across different angular thresholds (B=5, B=10, B=20, B=30). A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage. | Scope | Recorded value | | --- | --- | | Task | Illuminant estimation | | Dataset (including any stated split) | KAUST-MIE | | Metric | MAE (B=5) | | Unit | SCALAR | | Direction | Lower is better | | Results loaded | 26 of 26 | | Coverage | All results currently returned for this benchmark | Evaluation settings may differ between results. The original papers and recorded configurations are needed to establish comparability. A shared metric name alone does not establish an identical protocol. ## Metrics - [MAE (B=5)](): Lower is better; unit: SCALAR. - [MAE (B=10)](): Lower is better; unit: SCALAR. - [MAE (B=20)](): Lower is better; unit: SCALAR. - [MAE (B=30)](): Lower is better; unit: SCALAR. ## Recorded results | Method | MAE (B=5) | Result date | Report paper | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | Ill-PCA | 7.25 | Not recorded | 6a055746dbc836b87d828f05 | | Ill-PCA | 8.3 | Not recorded | 6a055746dbc836b87d828f05 | | PCA | 8.31 | Not recorded | 6a055746dbc836b87d828f05 | | PCA | 9.56 | Not recorded | 6a055746dbc836b87d828f05 | | NNMF | 9.95 | Not recorded | 6a055746dbc836b87d828f05 | | Ill-PCA | 10.58 | Not recorded | 6a055746dbc836b87d828f05 | | RAND | 10.71 | Not recorded | 6a055746dbc836b87d828f05 | | NNMF | 11.55 | Not recorded | 6a055746dbc836b87d828f05 | | PCA | 12.77 | Not recorded | 6a055746dbc836b87d828f05 | | LDA | 13.1 | Not recorded | 6a055746dbc836b87d828f05 | | NNMF | 13.19 | Not recorded | 6a055746dbc836b87d828f05 | | RAND | 13.71 | Not recorded | 6a055746dbc836b87d828f05 | | Ill-PCA | 14.82 | Not recorded | 6a055746dbc836b87d828f05 | | LDA | 15.24 | Not recorded | 6a055746dbc836b87d828f05 | | RGB | 15.42 | Not recorded | 6a055746dbc836b87d828f05 | | PCA | 15.49 | Not recorded | 6a055746dbc836b87d828f05 | | LDA | 17.18 | Not recorded | 6a055746dbc836b87d828f05 | | RAND | 17.54 | Not recorded | 6a055746dbc836b87d828f05 | | LDA | 19.97 | Not recorded | 6a055746dbc836b87d828f05 | | NNMF | 20.55 | Not recorded | 6a055746dbc836b87d828f05 | | NNMF | 22.67 | Not recorded | 6a055746dbc836b87d828f05 | | Ill-PCA | 22.7 | Not recorded | 6a055746dbc836b87d828f05 | | PCA | 23.49 | Not recorded | 6a055746dbc836b87d828f05 | | LDA | 24.37 | Not recorded | 6a055746dbc836b87d828f05 | | RAND | 24.66 | Not recorded | 6a055746dbc836b87d828f05 | | RAND | 33.94 | Not recorded | 6a055746dbc836b87d828f05 | ### Ill-PCA MAE (B=5): 7.25.
