colour.recovery.RGB_to_msds_Gaussian

colour.recovery.RGB_to_msds_Gaussian(RGB: ArrayLike) → NDArrayFloat

Recover spectral values from RGB colourspace array using Gaussian basis spectra and the Smits (1999) decomposition algorithm.

Parameters:

RGB (ArrayLike) – RGB colourspace array to recover spectral values from. The last dimension must be size 3.

Returns:

Recovered spectral values with shape (*RGB.shape[:-1], wavelengths).

Return type:

numpy.ndarray
