 Colour space put simply means range of colours types of colour space are grey scale which are just different shades of black grey and white. RGB which in a previous post i taught you meant red, green and blue.

YUV is the closest thing to human perception of colours the Y stands for luma or luminance  Luminance means the brightness of something  Chromanance means the depth of the actual colour and allows the colours in an image to look more natural to the human eye.

HSV stands for Hue, Saturation and Value, in web designer’s guide to graphics PNG,GIF&JPEG hue is a measurement of the colours position on the colour wheel. It’s what we usually mean when we say colour “green,” “red,” “yellow,” and so on. Saturation is a measurement of how “pure” a colour is. As colours become less saturated, they become grey. And brightness means, well brightness the amount of light in the image. (Referenced page 42)
