Color Counter

A rust project for getting the color distribution of one image.

The code works by dividing the colors into a cube on the CIELAB color space. Later those "regions" are filled with colors, which are ordered by frequency on that region, the code then returns those regions sorted by their most frequent color, and the colors on the regions are sorted by frequency also.

Using

This command will divide the color space 10 regions (10% of the dimension each), with 1000 regions in total, display the first 2 regions sorted by their most frequent color, and print the 2 most frequent colors of those regions, using the file forest.jpg.

cargo run -- -r 2 -c 2 -s 0.1 -f forest.jpg

Region 1
Color 1: rgb(142, 146, 113) Frequency: 48
Color 2: rgb(138, 142, 109) Frequency: 36

Region 2
Color 1: rgb(145, 149, 116) Frequency: 48
Color 2: rgb(148, 152, 119) Frequency: 46

cargo run -- --help

Todo

• Detect neighboor regions and create macro regions adding then as an display option.
• Better error handling
• Better tests
• Better sorting of regions and colors inside the region.
