I have no idea; when I did this intensively I would just run whatever software I had a license for -or my own code- look at the results, and if it looks ok to my eyes on some real-world captures I say I'm happy. I then run a profile editing toolchain I created myself to edit camera profiles to bring them in line with the esthetics I want to create eg. a portrait look, or a Velvia look. The technology is just a stepping stone a far as I'm concerned, and I'm not especially knowledgeable about it.
