Salaman's code is good but sometimes his inversion is not readable enough. I use YCbCr and just change gray scale.

function invertColor(rgb) {
    var yuv = rgb2yuv(rgb);
    var factor = 180;
    var threshold = 100;
    yuv.y = clamp(yuv.y + (yuv.y > threshold ? -factor : factor));
    return yuv2rgb(yuv);
}
