Matrix Structure: The matrix consists of 20 values that represent the transformation to apply to each pixel's Red, Green, and Blue components. The first three rows represent transformations for the R, G, and B channels respectively, followed by an Alpha channel and a constant adjustment value.

Value Explanation:

A positive value lightens the image.

A negative value darkens the image, ranging from -1 to 1.

A value of zero applies no change.
