Westland S., Ripamonti C. Computational Colour Science using MatLAB

Chichester, Great Britain: John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2004. - 220 p.The purpose of this book is to describe methods and algorithms for actually computing colorimetric parameters and for carrying out applications such as device characterization, transformations between colour spaces and computation of various indices such as colour differences. This book describes algorithms and mathematical procedures in colour science and illustrates these procedures using the numerical software tool called MatLAB. MatLAB provides several features that make it suitable for the implementation of algorithms in general, and colour-science algorithms in particular, and results in code that is easily understandable by the reader with relatively little experience of writing software. These features include the use of operations upon vectors and matrices to enable compact code that avoids the excessive use of looping procedures, the provision of a massive library of functions that the MatLAB programmer can call upon and the ease of use of graphics functions to enable the user to easily and effectively visualise complex data structures.Linear Algebra for Beginners
