LabCie-L*ab is defined by lightness and the color-opponent dimensions a and b, which are based on the compressed Xyz color space coordinates. Lab is particularly notable for its use in delta-e calculations. Read more about it here[1].
HunterLabHunterLab is similar to Cie-L*ab. Both are based on Xyz[2] but HunterLabs color coordinates are based around a square root transformation rather than a cube.
Looking for the code?All calculations were doing using the open source ColorMine[3] library.
The code used for the Lab and HunterLab conversions can be found on Github:
