Complexity Notes

• Conversions: . Accessing the generic to() method has a slight overhead compared to direct instantiation due to the XYZ intermediate step.
• Clustering: The K-Means implementation is where is pixels, is clusters, and is iterations. For large images, consider downsampling first.
• Tone Mapping: per color. Safe to use in real-time loops (e.g., canvas rendering).
