plantcv.transform.std_color_matrix(pos=0)

returns color_matrix

  • Parameters

    • pos - reference value indicating orientation of the color card. The reference is based on the position of the white chip:

      • pos = 0: bottom-left corner
      • pos = 1: bottom-right corner
      • pos = 2: top-right corner
      • pos = 3: top-left corner
  • Context

    • A standard matrix can be used most readily while doing affine color correction. Where possible it's recommended to use pcv.transform.detect_color_card which orders the color card mask as if the white chip were in the top-left corner, or pos = 3.
  • Returns

    • color_matrix - a n x 4 matrix containing the standard red, green, and blue values for each color chip
  • Example use:

    • Tutorial in progress

from plantcv import plantcv as pcv

std_color_matrix = pcv.transform.std_color_matrix(pos=0)

# use fixed point notation for printing the matrix
np.set_printoptions(precision=2, suppress=True)

print(std_color_matrix)
