Abstract

Systems and methods for sensor-independent illuminant determination are provided. In one embodiment of the method, the method includes receiving one or more training images in raw-RGB format; generating an input histogram from each of the inputted raw images; generating a learned mapping matrix that map raw images to a learned mapping space by passing the one or more input histograms to a trained first machine learning model; generating one or more mapped images by applying the learned mapping matrix to the one or more training images; generating a mapped histogram from each of the mapped images; and determining the result illuminant by passing the one or more mapped histograms as input into a second machine learning model. A final illuminant for an input image can be determined by applying the result illuminant to the input color space of the input image.
