Recap:
- A question was put to the group of whether to focus more on @jedsmith’s RGB based approach or also to continue to pursue other types of algorithms. The general consensus was to focus on the Jed’s method with any other investigations only taking place in the background.
- People like the simplicity of RGB method, staying in that colorspace is ideal
- @daniele pointed out that this method is closer to film emulation / real world colors in appearance, could help with adoption
- What should the confidence gamut be? The area that encompasses the MacBeth 24 chart, the ColorChecker SG chart with the Munsell Colors or Rec.709? The definition of the confidence gamut would also need to depend on the target gamut to allow for a boundary region for the compression. The group will be focusing on AP1 as the target gamut.
- Should we be mapping from infinity? Daniele points out that IDTs are the worst they’ll ever be right now, and should only get better - we hope this is true!
- @joseph pointed out that we also might eventually need gamut mapping for cameras that might satisfy the Luther-Ives condition - from spectral locus to AP1
- Has thresholds for individual RGB channels instead of a single threshold been tested? No, it’s an interesting idea.
- @matthias.scharfenber brought up that any rolloff proposed for shadows to compensate for changes in noise breaks any idea of exposure invariance.
- Jed has a version for testing the effect of shadow roll off.
-
@LarsB brought up the issue with doing per-channel compression causing possibly single-colored noise in the shadows
- We should maybe create a test for this case with achromatic noise
- If we are using a gamut agnostic, what about invertibility? Should we be inverting colors at the boundary back to infinity? Where / when / should this happen?
- Will this algorithm’s inverse ever be applied on non-gamut mapped data?
- How do we evaluate our algorithm under display referred conditions?
- Evaluate against other colorspaces / output transforms in a non-ACES spaces
- The idea was suggested of a simpler display transform for testing, at least without the “RRT sweeteners”.
