[comp.graphics] "Info request on origin of testimages"

vanmellaert@esat.kuleuven.ac.be (10/29/90)

In our image processing group we have been using several 'standard' testimages
during the past years. However somewhere along the road we lost track of where
these images came from. We also don't know whether these images are in CIERGB
or some other adapted colourspace, and if these images are really the original
ones (no superimposed gamma correction, filtered images etc...) 

Therefore we are looking for information on where to obtain the original colour
images (most people working on image processing are familiar with these images):

* 'girl' or 'Karen' or for the larger image 'girl and man in room'
* Lena or Lenna or 'girl with hat'
* Mandrill or 'baboon'
* pepper
* boats
* Lynda, Vegas, Tiffany etc. (different images of women)
* face
* ...

It is very important to have the original images if one whishes to compare his
processing results with the results of other researchers.

Thanks,
Bertrand.
