In order to convert RGB or CMYK values to or from L*a*b*, the RGB or CMYK data must be linearized relative to light. The reference illuminant of the RGB or CMYK data must be known, as well as the RGB primary coordinates or the CMYK printer's reference data in the form of a color lookup table (CLUT).
Converting from sRGB requires first converting from sRGB to CIE XYZ with a Standard Illuminant D65. As the last step of this conversion is a linear map from linear RGB to CIE XYZ, the reference implementation directly employs the multiplied matrix representing the composition of the two linear maps: [ 1 ]
Color space conversion is the translation of the representation of a color from one basis to another. This typically occurs in the context of converting an image that is represented in one color space to another color space, the goal being to make the translated image look as similar as possible to the original.
RGB (red, green, blue) describes the chromaticity component of a given color, when excluding luminance. RGB itself is not a color space, it is a color model. There are many different color spaces that employ this color model to describe their chromaticities because the R/G/B chromaticities are one facet for reproducing color in CRT & LED displays.
A comparison between a typical normalized M cone's spectral sensitivity and the CIE 1931 luminosity function for a standard observer in photopic vision. In the CIE 1931 model, Y is the luminance, Z is quasi-equal to blue (of CIE RGB), and X is a mix of the three CIE RGB curves chosen to be nonnegative (see § Definition of the CIE XYZ color space).
Judd was the first to employ this type of transformation, and many others were to follow. Converting this RGB space to chromaticities one finds [4] [clarification needed The following formulae do not agree with u=R/(R+G+B) and v=G/(R+G+B)] Judd's UCS, with the Planckian locus and the isotherms from 1,000K to 10,000K, perpendicular to the locus.
The RGB color model is an additive color model [1] in which the red, green, and blue primary colors of light are added together in various ways to reproduce a broad array of colors. The name of the model comes from the initials of the three additive primary colors , red, green, and blue.
Normalized responsivity spectra of human cone cells, S, M, and L types (SMJ data based on Stiles and Burch [1] RGB color-matching, linear scale, weighted for equal energy) [2] LMS (long, medium, short), is a color space which represents the response of the three types of cones of the human eye , named for their responsivity (sensitivity) peaks ...
