The decoding half of camera-profiles.md §11-§12. RawImage gains
baseline_exposure: the file's BaselineExposure plus the chosen
profile's BaselineExposureOffset, as the DNG SDK sums them (+0.25 for
the library's 6D DNGs). A profile copied out of a DNG carries that
DNG's baseline as its offset, so the body's CR2s, which have none,
land at the same total.
ProfileTables gains the profile's ProfileToneCurve, resampled at
decode onto 1025 points with a natural cubic spline; an identity curve
counts as none. dr-types now holds Camera Raw's ACR3 default curve,
RawTherapee's adobe_camera_raw_default_curve copied value for value,
for every raw whose profile has no curve. Nothing renders through
either yet.
The learned demosaic replaces the classical one and takes its input, the
mosaic hot_pixels.wgsl leaves (denoise.md §2), so its training data and its
input in the app must come through that pass and not a lookalike. The pass
was recorded inline in Demosaicer::run; it is now built by hot_pass and
recorded by record_hot_pass, which run still uses unchanged, and
Demosaicer::repair_hot_pixels runs it on its own and reads the mosaic back.
mosaic_dump moves to dr-gpu to call it, records how many photosites changed,
and keeps --unrepaired for a raw readout.
The first half of D20. dr-decode now finds a camera profile's HueSatMap
and LookTable in the order camera-profiles.md §4 gives: the profile a
DNG embeds, then a .dcp in the profiles directory whose
UniqueCameraModel names the body, then none. A .dcp brings its own
matrices, since its tables were measured against its forward matrix.
The HueSatMap is blended for the frame's colour temperature with the
same mired weight the matrices use, once per decode, and the result
rides on RawImage as profile_tables beside color_matrix, so every path
that renders a decoded file gets the same profile without a setter to
forget. Nothing applies the tables yet.
A profile whose embed policy allows copying can be written back out as
a .dcp (rawler's TIFF writer with the RC magic patched in), which is how
the library's 6D CR2s will get the Adobe Standard their DNGs carry. The
table type lives in dr-types because decode, pipeline and GPU all need
its layout. Tests read the library's 6D DNG when it is present.
The base curve was a five-point spline on the unit square, flat past its
last point: every value above 1.0 left it as the same number, per
channel. Exposure and highlight recovery put values up there, and the
curve threw them away, then handed the result on as though it were
still scene-linear. The six per-body curves were also, by their own
file's account, hand-tuned shapes rather than measurements, and not
enough is known about where they came from to keep them (D19).
In their place, one view transform for every body (FR-DEV-3j): a
log-logistic sigmoid per channel, with the middle channel put back
between the other two so a hue survives the shoulder. Its two free
constants are solved from two conditions rather than set: scene grey
0.13, where the retired default curve put it, lands on display 0.18,
and the scene white four stops above grey lands on 1.0. So a highlight
a stop past sensor saturation still rolls into white, and the midtones
stay within 0.26 EV of the retired default between scene 0.03 and 1.0.
`dr_pipeline::view` holds the CPU reference and the WGSL, and the tests
there are FR-DEV-3j's acceptance criteria.
It is still fixed and still in the fused pass's tail, so a detail stage
still sees rendered values; the next commits make it an operation and
move it after the detail stage. It is skipped for a JPEG, as the base
curve was, and absent from the camera-space tap.
The base curve's database, its lookup and its twelve uniform slots go.
`RawImage` and `DemosaicedImage` lose the field, and the GPU test that
proved a curve reached the shader is replaced by one that renders the
view transform against the CPU reference and shows two highlights above
1.0 still render apart. The JPEG-and-sensor test now asserts the two
differ by exactly the view transform, where before an identity fixture
curve had made them match.
A hot photosite went into the demosaic as it was read, and came out as a
coloured cross three pixels wide that nothing later could take back
out. Night and long exposures showed them; the defect-map reader added
for FR-RAW-3 was never wired in, and a CR2 carries no map anyway.
A pass over the mosaic now runs ahead of the demosaic, into a second
buffer. A photosite is hot when it reads more than twice every
same-colour photosite in its 5x5 window plus 2% of the range, and more
than twice each of its eight immediate neighbours of any colour. The
second half keeps stars and glints: real light reaches the sensor
through a lens and an anti-aliasing filter and lights a patch, so the
photosites beside it are lit too, where a hot photosite's are dark. It
is replaced by its brightest same-colour neighbour, which invents
nothing. Dead photosites are the mirror case, judged only where the
neighbourhood is above 5%, so shadow noise clipped at black is left
alone.
The colour of each photosite comes from a 6x6 sensor-anchored tile, so
Bayer and X-Trans share the pass. Export and every other path that
demosaics get it too, and there is no setting: the repair only fires
where a single photosite disagrees with everything around it.
Cost, warm, on a Canon 6D frame (RTX 3050): 91-99 ms to demosaic
before, 94-98 ms after; the extra pass is inside the run-to-run noise.
Tests render a frame with and without the defect and compare the
finished pixels. Without the repair a hot photosite showed by 230 and a
dead one by 168; with it neither shows, and a 3x3 highlight at white
survives.
