RGB to YCbCr color space conversion.

Parameters:
rgbarray_like of shape (…, C=3, …)

The image in RGB format. By default, the final dimension denotes channels.

channel_axisint, optional

This parameter indicates which axis of the array corresponds to channels.

Added in version 0.19: channel_axis was added in 0.19.

Returns:
outndarray of shape (…, C=3, …)

The image in YCbCr format. Same dimensions as input.

Raises:

If rgb is not at least 2-D with shape (…, C=3, …).

Notes

Y is between 16 and 235. This is the color space commonly used by video codecs; it is sometimes incorrectly called “YUV”.
