Three methods of color transfer implemented in python.

Color Transfer in Python

Three methods of color transfer implemented in Python.

Output Examples

Input image	Reference image	Mean std transfer	Lab mean transfer	Pdf transfer + Regrain

Methods

Let input image be $I$, reference image be $R$ and output image be $O$. Let $f{I}(r, g, b)$, $f{R}(r, g, b)$ be probability density functions of $I$ and $R$'s rgb values.

• Mean std transfer

  $$O = (I - mean(I)) / std(I) * std(R) + mean(R).$$

• Lab mean transfer[^1]

  $$I' = rgb2lab(I)$$ $$R' = rgb2lab(R)$$ $$O' = (I' - mean(I')) / std(I') * std(R') + mean(R')$$ $$O = lab2rgb(O')$$

• Pdf transfer[^2]

  $O = t(I)$, where $t: R^3-> R^3$ is a continous mapping so that $f{t(I)}(r, g, b) = f{R}(r, g, b)$.

Requirements

• 🐍 python>=3.6

Usage

from pathlib import Path

import cv2
from python_color_transfer.color_transfer import ColorTransfer

# Using demo images
input_image = 'demo_images/house.jpeg'
ref_image = 'demo_images/hats.png'

# input image and reference image
img_arr_in = cv2.imread(input_image)
img_arr_ref = cv2.imread(ref_image)

# Initialize the class
PT = ColorTransfer()

# Pdf transfer
img_arr_pdf_reg = PT.pdf_tranfer(img_arr_in=img_arr_in,
                             img_arr_ref=img_arr_ref,
                             regrain=True)
# Mean std transfer
img_arr_mt = PT.mean_std_transfer(img_arr_in=img_arr_in,
                                  img_arr_ref=img_arr_ref)
# Lab mean transfer
img_arr_lt = PT.lab_transfer(img_arr_in=img_arr_in, img_arr_ref=img_arr_ref)

# Save the example results
img_name = Path(input_image).stem
for method, img in [('pdf-reg', img_arr_pdf_reg), ('mt', img_arr_mt),
                   ('lt', img_arr_lt)]:
    cv2.imwrite(f'{img_name}_{method}.jpg', img)
