Title: Public poll "Name the process"
Post by: Carlos Milovic on 2010 May 03 10:12:00

Hi guys

This week I'm retaking an old project, which I am very anxious to get finally done :)
The first project name was "SuperCurves", and then changed to "MultivariateCurves"... but I don't feel comfortable with either one.

So, here is an open poll to put a name to this new process. Basically, it is a generalization of the ColorSaturation tool, mixed a bit with Curves. Imagine that you may create a boost curve (like ColorSaturation) but with any pair of channels (on any supported color space). For example, change the luminance by the hue, or the greens by the blues. The interface will be basically the same of ColorSaturation, although expanded to create all the pairs. Also the algorithm used to boost the channels will be different, not a linear factor (so a Hue/Saturation pair will yield slight different results for the same values/curve).

Cross your fingers so this process will be avalaible in the next release.

Here's a few suggestions that probably don't make any sense...

CouplingCurves
JoinedCurves
PairedCurves
CurveCombine
CurveCrossing
...

What about

ColourSpaceCurves (CSC)

After all, isn't what you are doing is applying a 'Curve' transformation via a pair of elements extracted in one of the Colour Space models?

Just my first thought . . . . .

Thanks for the input you all!
Vicent, I think that you nailed it with ICC. Descriptive, yet simple. I'll use that name for the moment. :)

Yup, I like InterChannelCurves as well. Just be careful using the abbreviated "ICC" version ;)

That's one more reason I liked it ;)
