Python_ColorManagement

GOAL : Make a color management system in python and improve performance by PyOpenCL

Stage

1. To implement RGB_XYZ color space transformation via python

• Need to obtain image metadata. [options] 1) python module "exifread". 2) python module "PIL". 3) cross-platform executable "exiftool" under ./Image-ExifTool-10.15/ Downloaded from http://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/index.html 4) a JPEGMetadataParser via python https://github.com/kilikkuo/JPEGMetadataParser

• Need to define all required transformation matrics. http://www.brucelindbloom.com/index.html?Eqn_RGB_XYZ_Matrix.html

• See RGB_XYZ.py / ColorChannelInst.py / EXIF_ColorProfileParser.py

2. Implement algorithm of stage 1 via OpenCL kernel function.

• See cmm.json / temp_algorithm.c

3. Bridge 2 via kernel-mapper (A tool to simplify the use of PyOpenCL)
