<p dir="ltr">This thesis aims to stimulate human creativity by enhancing users' perception of colour energy, with particular applicability for individuals with achromatopsia. Traditional computational colour mechanisms fail to achieve this objective.</p><p dir="ltr">Through a combinatorial creativity approach and classical mediation effect parameter estimation, this research addresses two problems:</p><p dir="ltr">The first problem is that conventional gamut mechanisms in computing systems cannot adequately evaluate human-computer interaction. this study introduces an innovative method that integrates human brain colour response data with colour photon energy processing. This approach develops an enriched colour model for overcoming shortcomings of three standard electronic colour gamut algorithms. Through enabling transformations among the above models, the research achieves a solution where functionalities of all these models can be compared in terms of how effectively human-computer interaction is assessed.</p><p dir="ltr">The second problem is that standard computational colour spaces are constrained by traditional LED display and cannot be measured directly by wavelength of colours, i.e., existing mechanisms are insufficient for human brain-computer interface to project information onto screens. This thesis enhances colour gamut transformation algorithms by directly incorporating wavelength-based calculations.</p><p dir="ltr">The core contribution of this thesis is constructing a new approach through unifying and enriching three standard electronic colour mechanisms, providing a better mechanism for brain-computer interface applications.</p>
