Color processing apparatus and color processing method
A color processing apparatus includes a calculation unit configured to calculate a correction value from reference color information in an input color gamut and reference color information in a reference color gamut, a correction unit configured to correct reference target color information in the reference color gamut based on the correction value to calculate target color information, and a color conversion unit configured to convert an input color in the input color gamut into an output color within an output color gamut by using the target color information.
1. A color processing apparatus comprising:
an obtaining unit configured to obtain first reference color information in a reference color gamut and reference target color information in an output color gamut which corresponds to the first reference color information;
a correction unit configured to correct the reference target color information in the output color gamut based on second reference color information in an input color gamut and the first reference color information in the reference color gamut; and
a color conversion unit configured to convert an input color in the input color gamut into an output color within the output color gamut by using the corrected reference target color information.
2. The color processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the first reference color information is primary color information in the reference color gamut, and
the second reference color information is primary color information in the input color gamut.
3. The color processing apparatus according to claim 1 , further comprising a selection unit configured to compare the input color gamut with a plurality of reference color gamuts to select one reference color gamut,
wherein the correction unit uses reference target color information in the selected reference color gamut.
4. The color processing apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the correction unit calculates a difference between the second reference color information in the input color gamut and the first reference color information in the reference color gamut, and corrects the reference target color information by using the calculated difference.
5. A color processing method comprising:
obtaining, using processing circuitry, first reference color information in a reference color gamut and reference target color information in an output color gamut which corresponds to the first reference color information;
correcting, using processing circuitry, the reference target color information in the output color gamut based on second reference color information in an input color gamut and the first reference color information in the reference color gamut; and
converting, using processing circuitry, an input color in the input color gamut into an output color within the output color gamut by using the corrected reference target color information.
6. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing computer-executable instructions for causing a computer to implement the color processing method according to claim 5 .
