State whether the following is true or false.
Tristimulus values cannot be converted back into the original spectral reflectance curve.

  • A.False
  • B.True only at large scales
  • C.False only at small scales
  • D.True

Answer: D

Many different spectra give the same three numbers under one illuminant. This irreversibility is precisely what makes metamerism possible. Many spectra map to the same three values. The reduction discards information irrecoverably.
