Systems, methods, and interfaces for rapid coating generation

A computerized method for use on a computer system comprising one or more processors and one or more computer-readable media having stored thereon executable instructions that when executed by the one or more processors configure the computer system to perform a method of optimizing a coating formulation through a user interface, comprising:

• displaying on a display device a graphical user interface for completing a spectrometric scan of a target coating;
• processing spectrometric data through a probabilistic colorant analysis, wherein the probabilistic colorant analysis generates a set of colorants, each colorant within the set of colorants being associated with a calculated probability that the associated colorant is present within the target coating;
• identifying a proposed group of colorants from within the set of colorants, wherein the proposed group of colorants comprise colorants selected from the set of colorants that are associated with the highest calculated probabilities of being present within the target coating;
• displaying on the graphical user interface an indication of each colorant within the proposed group of colorants corresponding to the target coating;
• displaying one or more selectable interface elements on the graphical user interface, wherein the one or more selectable interface elements are configured to select individual colorants within the proposed group of colorants;
• and
• upon receipt of user input, generating a coating formulation, wherein the coating formulation is generated from user selected colorants of the proposed group of colorants.

A computer program product comprising one or more non-transitory computer storage media having stored thereon computer-executable instructions that, when executed at a processor, cause the computer system to perform a method for optimizing a coating formulation through a user interface, the method comprising:

• displaying on a display device a graphical user interface for completing a spectrometric scan of a target coating;
• processing spectrometric data through a probabilistic colorant analysis, wherein the probabilistic colorant analysis generates a set of colorants, each colorant within the set of colorants being associated with a calculated probability that the associated colorant is present within the target coating;
