Compute the ZCAM colour appearance model correlates from the specified CIE XYZ tristimulus values.

Parameters:
  • XYZ (Annotated[_Buffer | _SupportsArray[dtype[Any]] | _NestedSequence[_SupportsArray[dtype[Any]]] | complex | bytes | str | _NestedSequence[complex | bytes | str], 1]) – Absolute CIE XYZ tristimulus values of test sample / stimulus.

  • XYZ_w (Annotated[_Buffer | _SupportsArray[dtype[Any]] | _NestedSequence[_SupportsArray[dtype[Any]]] | complex | bytes | str | _NestedSequence[complex | bytes | str], 1]) – Absolute CIE XYZ tristimulus values of the white under reference illuminant.

  • L_A (ArrayLike) – Test adapting field luminance \(L_A\) in \(cd/m^2\) such as \(L_A = L_w * Y_b / 100\) (where \(L_w\) is luminance of the reference white and \(Y_b\) is the background luminance factor).

  • Y_b (ArrayLike) – Luminous factor of background \(Y_b\) such as \(Y_b = 100 * L_b / L_w\) where \(L_w\) is the luminance of the light source and \(L_b\) is the luminance of the background. For viewing images, \(Y_b\) can be the average \(Y\) value for the pixels in the entire image, or frequently, a \(Y\) value of 20, approximating an \(L^*\) of 50 is used.

  • surround (InductionFactors_ZCAM) – Surround viewing conditions induction factors.

  • discount_illuminant (bool) – Truth value indicating if the illuminant should be discounted.

  • compute_H (bool) – Whether to compute Hue \(h\) quadrature \(H\). \(H\) is rarely used, and expensive to compute.

Returns:

ZCAM colour appearance model specification.

Return type:

colour.CAM_Specification_ZCAM

Warning

The underlying SMPTE ST 2084:2014 transfer function is an absolute transfer function.

Notes

  • Safdar, Hardeberg and Luo (2021) does not specify how the chromatic adaptation to CIE Standard Illuminant D65 in Step 0 should be performed. A one-step Von Kries chromatic adaptation transform is not symmetrical or transitive when a degree of adaptation is involved. Safdar, Hardeberg and Luo (2018) uses Zhai and Luo (2018) two-steps chromatic adaptation transform, thus it seems sensible to adopt this transform for the ZCAM colour appearance model until more information is available. It is worth noting that a one-step Von Kries chromatic adaptation transform with support for degree of adaptation produces values closer to the supplemental document compared to the Zhai and Luo (2018) two-steps chromatic adaptation transform but then the ZCAM colour appearance model does not round-trip properly.

  • The underlying SMPTE ST 2084:2014 transfer function is an absolute transfer function, thus the domain and range values for the Reference and 1 scales are only indicative that the data is not affected by scale transformations.
