This may or may not be a filter forge specific question. But it might be something that you can help with.

I would like to grab the color palette of an image file and apply it to another image file as a replacement palette.

As an example, it would be nice to take a landscape painting done in a musty subdued palette and regenerate that image with a brighter more colorful palette extracted from a Monet or fauvist painting.

Is there software with enough smarts to do that?

This area is partly covered by "deep style" programs. I use one on the Mac called "Photo Art Filters: DeepStyle". Got it from the app store. Works best in medium resolutions. DeepStyle and DeepDream programs are generally pretty slow at high resolutions and often give better results at medium resolutions. Anyway, my 2 cents, here is an impasto style of Kiko.

Math meets art meets psychedelia.

Hmm. So let's say that cat one as is, is the start image. Lets say I want that cats colors to be automatically swapped out for the colors of a Monet garden painting. No styles change just a palette swap. Can that be done?

So the process would go something like this. Photo 1 is your cat photo 2 is a Monet garden painting. Both photos are loaded into an app. I hit a button that says RECOLOR PHOTO 1 using Photo 2's palette.
Again no style changes only color exchanges. That's what I'm after.

Yes, this sounds like a job for a deep neural network. I think a deeper conceptual understanding of the image is required in order to successfully transfer a palette - something that's not really viable with traditional image processing methods. I've seen attempts at this, but the results are never very good. No idea if any deepnet applications are available at the moment, but you can find research papers on the subject if you google it.

You might be able to create the look using Actions in Photoshop. You do know how to do that, right? Adobe has plenty of Tutorials. There are also a lot of Actions available on Adobes website. It is worth your time to explore it, I am pretty sure you could get in the ballpark.
Good Luck, Mike

Yes I do know how to locate and apply actions. But I could not imagine an action that know where to place the colors. So I've not yet looked. There are plenty of ways to extract a palette from each image. But no way to automate it's application. At some level the software would need know what colors go to which new photo part. So I figure Some AI has to become involved

The closest method here is probably:

See Inujima's Histogram Sync. As of today it looks like the example picture is unavailable but it's a nice filter.

Histogram Sync works pretty well. Here is the Ladybug with the Lionfish palette.

Thanks for the suggestions. So far I'm not having any luck with Histogram sync. My results are not even in the ballpark.
