colour.utilities.metric_mse#
- colour.utilities.metric_mse(a: ArrayLike, b: ArrayLike, axis: int | Tuple[int] | None = None) NDArrayFloat [source]#
Compute the mean squared error (MSE) or mean squared deviation (MSD) between given variables \(a\) and \(b\).
- Parameters:
a (ArrayLike) – Variable \(a\).
b (ArrayLike) – Variable \(b\).
axis (int | Tuple[int] | None) – Axis or axes along which the means are computed. The default is to compute the mean of the flattened array. If this is a tuple of ints, a mean is performed over multiple axes, instead of a single axis or all the axes as before.
- Returns:
Mean squared error (MSE).
- Return type:
