I'm scratching my head over how to invert a LUT.

Mike,

That is indeed a very difficult topic. For properly inverting a LUT you have
to know the gamut boundaries, and then proceed differently inside or outside
gamut. I have done some experimentation with generalized Newton on n
dimensions using Jacobians. Works well if the gamut hull is convex and the
lut is "smooth" enough. You have to extrapolate ouside gamut. I have used
a polinomial approach here, with little succes I should add :-(

lcms does not have such code, there is no need to do that strictly following ICC
spec. However, I would be interesting as a future addition, since this would solve
the issue about limited precission BToAxx tags exhibit...


Regards,
Marti.

Subject: [Lcms-user] Inverting a LUT?



I'm scratching my head over how to invert a LUT.

I've looked over other, non lcms, examples, for example Argyll's makerev,
but since this must be a relatively common operation, I'm wondering if there
is an existing example using lcms.


Thanks, BTW, to Marti and others who helped with my previous question.
