Comparison of the g–r color for galaxies in TestFields for three cases: without deblending, deblending with MADNESS and with SCARLET, as we vary the color (top panels) and contamination, κ_r, in the r-band (bottom panels). Panel (a) shows the variation of true color residuals (δC^T) computed with the color from catalog (C^T) as the baseline, and panel (b) shows the distribution of blending error (δC^B) with colors from photometry on noisy isolated galaxies (C^N) as the baseline. For each panel, the top plot shows the color residuals where the boxes and whiskers in the plot indicate the ranges from 25^th to 75^th and 5^th to 95^th percentiles, respectively. The plot at the bottom of each panel shows the distribution of the metric on the horizontal axis.
