colour.MultiSpectralDistributions

class colour.MultiSpectralDistributions(data=None, domain=None, labels=None, **kwargs)[source]

Bases: colour.continuous.multi_signals.MultiSignals

Defines the multi-spectral distributions: the base object for multi spectral computations. It is used to model colour matching functions, display primaries, camera sensitivities, etc…

The multi-spectral distributions will be initialised according to CIE 15:2004 recommendation: the method developed by Sprague (1880) will be used for interpolating functions having a uniformly spaced independent variable and the Cubic Spline method for non-uniformly spaced independent variable. Extrapolation is performed according to CIE 167:2005 recommendation.

Parameters
  • data (Series or Dataframe or Signal or MultiSignals or MultiSpectralDistributions or array_like or dict_like, optional) – Data to be stored in the multi-spectral distributions.

  • domain (array_like, optional) – Values to initialise the multiple colour.SpectralDistribution class instances colour.continuous.Signal.wavelengths attribute with. If both data and domain arguments are defined, the latter will be used to initialise the colour.continuous.Signal.wavelengths attribute.

  • labels (array_like, optional) – Names to use for the colour.SpectralDistribution class instances.

Other Parameters
  • name (unicode, optional) – Multi-spectral distributions name.

  • interpolator (object, optional) – Interpolator class type to use as interpolating function for the colour.SpectralDistribution class instances.

  • interpolator_args (dict_like, optional) – Arguments to use when instantiating the interpolating function of the colour.SpectralDistribution class instances.

  • extrapolator (object, optional) – Extrapolator class type to use as extrapolating function for the colour.SpectralDistribution class instances.

  • extrapolator_args (dict_like, optional) – Arguments to use when instantiating the extrapolating function of the colour.SpectralDistribution class instances.

  • strict_labels (array_like, optional) – Multi-spectral distributions labels for figures, default to colour.MultiSpectralDistributions.labels attribute value.

interpolate(shape, interpolator=None, interpolator_args=None)[source]

Interpolates the multi-spectral distributions in-place according to CIE 167:2005 recommendation or given interpolation arguments.

Parameters
  • shape (SpectralShape, optional) – Spectral shape used for interpolation.

  • interpolator (object, optional) – Interpolator class type to use as interpolating function.

  • interpolator_args (dict_like, optional) – Arguments to use when instantiating the interpolating function.

Returns

Interpolated multi-spectral distributions.

Return type

MultiSpectralDistributions

Notes

Warning

See colour.SpectralDistribution.interpolate() method warning section.

property shape

Getter and setter property for the multi-spectral distributions shape.

Returns

Multi-spectral distributions shape.

Return type

SpectralShape

Notes

  • Multi-spectral distributions with a non-uniformly spaced independent variable have multiple intervals, in that case colour.MultiSpectralDistributions.shape attribute returns the minimum interval size.

Warning

colour.MultiSpectralDistributions.shape attribute is read only.

Examples

Shape of the multi-spectral distributions with a uniformly spaced independent variable:

>>> MultiSpectralDistributions(data).shape
SpectralShape(500.0, 560.0, 10.0)

Shape of the multi-spectral distributions with a non-uniformly spaced independent variable:

>>> data[511] = (0.00314, 0.31416, 0.03142)
>>> MultiSpectralDistributions(data).shape
