This is some great work. The notable point here is that the work is done by a Computer Graphics Programmer using Open Source Free software (colorio and colour-science both for Python ) and not a Researcher using Closed Source Commercial software like Matlab.
- s_gourichon 6y agoFWIW, researchers I know use C++, Python, Linux and many open-source tools.
- kelsolaar 6y agoFor colour science though?

- ska 6y agoSure. I think you are seeing a path dependence thing - more so in the past, but still there are engineering departments that are very matlab oriented, and others that are not. So depending who you work with, you'll see a ton of it or little. This is a bit like the python/R dichotomy in data science.
- CyberDildonics 6y agoI'm not sure why all these are capitalized as some sort of formal titles, but matlab is very rarely used in computer graphics. Computer graphics is mostly fairly simple math that needs to scale well and not have edge cases. Some papers have had their algorithms in matlab but it is the exception in research and basically never used in any sort of production sense, because you would just have to port it to C++ to use it.

- ska 6y agocomputer graphics and color science communities are fairly distinct, although obviously there is some overlap.
