Hi Michael,

Yes, it’s common in Python and you should generally work in floating point until the very final step of processing. This will help avoid accumulation of rounding errors.

See our documentation on this here:
http://scikit-image.org/docs/dev/user_guide/data_types.html

Happy coding!

Juan.

Using http://www.easyrgb.com/index.php  
CIE-L*ab   =   48.000  -14.000   25.000

equals

RGB 0-255  =   105.30   119.53    70.87
RGB 0-0.1  =  0.41293  0.46875  0.27791

XYZ        =   13.654   16.794    8.461

Illuminant =  D65
Observer   =  2° (1931)

So Ryan was correct to say the values are scaled between 0 and 1 (I was using the wrong row in my re-conversion to 0 to 255 scale)
This is the 1st time I've come across RGB scaled to 0 and 1. Is its common in python and does the other scikit-image functions handle the 0 -1 scaled values or should I work with 0 to 255 values to be safe?

I'm not sure what illuminant colormine uses but if you multiple by 255 you get 151,154,141 which it getting closer to what I expect (greenish colour) with 105,119,70 still being much closer

It looks to me as if lab2rgb is returning colors scaled as floats between 0 and 1 while colormine.org is returning 8 bit integers scaled 0-255.

Try multiplying by 255 and comparing the outputs.

Hi all,


If I use the following array of LAB values 
array([[[ 48.07851346, -14.69400135, 25.2170507 ],
 [ 63.21232753, -3.65444198, 6.67734193],
 [ 45.80027308, -2.47952304, 11.5073341 ],
 [ 46.84900559, -10.37025167, 19.92527996],
 [ 44.92476952, 19.36861848, 2.97238555],
 [ 35.50132805, 5.89086564, 1.95259827]]])
and use the following code to pass the array to lab2rgb
rgbcolours =color.lab2rgb(ClusterColours.values[np.newaxis])
I get the array
array([[[ 0.40929448, 0.47071505, 0.27701891],
 [ 0.59383913, 0.60611158, 0.55329837],
 [ 0.4393785 , 0.4276561 , 0.34999225],
 [ 0.4159481 , 0.4516056 , 0.3026519 ],
 [ 0.54449997, 0.36963636, 0.4001209 ],
 [ 0.36970012, 0.3145826 , 0.315974 ]]])
but on colormine.org if I enter the 1st of the LAB values I get 105,119,70 for RGB and not colours so close to black



Where am I going wrong?
