The purpose of this study is to make a Web Color Data Base for practical design system for domestic fashion industry. The market segmentation was based on the results of the previous studies and the characteristics of fashion consumers. Finally, the 14,121 color samples are collected from the survey of 55 manufacturers of domestic fashion industry and 116 fashion brands of major department stores. These color samples are analyzed by the Munsell's H V/C and CIE L*a*b* value. The representative colors are selected concerning the density in CIE L*a*b* color space and the distance between the color samples. As a result, We suggested 2213 representative colors. Also, this color data was constructed on Web site. The data were sorted by the market, season and color code. In addition, the representative color sample book was made for the prototype of .

In this paper, we present a non-static color histogram method to retrieve clothing images that are similar to a query clothing. Given clothing area, our method automatically extracts major colors by using the octree-based quantization approach[16]. Then, a color palette that is composed of the major colors is generated. The feature of each clothing, which can be either a query or a database clothing image, is represented as a color histogram based on its color palette. We define the match color bins between two possibly different color palettes, and unify the color palettes by merging or deleting some color bins if necessary. The similarity between two histograms is measured by using the weighted Euclidean distance between the match color bins, where the weight is derived from the frequency of each bin. We compare our method with previous histogram matching methods through experiments. Compared to HSV cumulative histogram-based approach, our method improves the retrieval precision by 13.7 % with less number of color bins.

This research investigated the effect of individual yarn colors on the perception of overall colors of yarn-dyed woven fabrics. The way the colors of yarn-dyed woven fabrics are perceived is known as visual color mixing: when the different colored yarns juxtaposed on the fabric surface are observed from some distance away, they are visually mixed in our eyes and perceived as a solid color. However, we can still see individual yarn colors that make the fabrics look obviously different from actual solid colors. To quantify this visual color mixing effect, twenty-one sateen fabrics were produced in a wide range of colors using cyan, magenta, and yellow yarns, and the colors were measured instrumentally. The obtained colorimetric values were converted into solid color images on a CRT monitor. Then, the physical fabrics were scanned, and the scanned images were displayed on the monitor with solid color images in pairs for visual color difference evaluation. The woven and solid colors in each pair were of physically identical color; however, the visual color difference was as large as $4.81{\Delta}{E^*}_{ab}$ on average. A visual color difference model was proposed by considering this parametric effect of individual yarn colors.

Art psychotherapy is widely accepted as an effective tool for diagnosis and treatment of psychological disorders. Important factors for art psychotherapy diagnosis, based on the projection theory that the world of the inner mind appears in drawings, include main color and imbalance of a drawing. This paper develops a system for a machine to determine the main color and the imbalance of a drawing by color recognition and edge detection. Our proposed color recognition procedure adopts NBS(National Bureau of Standards) distance between colors in HVC(Hue, Value, Chroma) color space which is most similar to the human eye's color perception. Our edge detection procedure applies blurring, clustering and transformation to a standard color in a series. Our system considers the numbers of pixels and clusters for each color as a criterion for main color and the frequency of edge coordinates for each region for imbalance. The proposed machine procedure, verified through case studies, can help overcome the subjectivity, ambiguity and uncertainty in human decision involved in art psychotherapy.

This paper proposes a color-based image retrieval method using color adjacency and gradient. In proposed method, both the adjacency of different colors and gradient of a color in homogeneous region are considered as features of an image. The gradient, defined as the maximum distance along the direction with largest change of color, is computed for each pixel to determine whether the center color is similar or different to the neighboring colors. Therefore the problems caused by uniform quantization, which is popularly used at most existing retrieval, can be avoided. And furthermore, the storage of the feature is reduced by the proposed binary representation.

In this paper, video image segmentation algorithm based on color histogram and change detector is proposed. Color histograms are calculated from both changed region which is detected in the previous and current frame and unchanged region. With each histogram, modes and valleys are detected. Then, color vectors are calculated by averaging pixels in modes. Markers are extracted by labeling color vectors that represent modes, the watershed algorithm is applied to determine uncertain region. In growing region, the root mean square(RMS) of the distance between average pixel in marker region and adjacent pixel is used as a measure. The proposed algorithm based on color histogram and change detector segments video image fastly and effectively. And simulation results show that the proposed method determines the exact boundary between background and foreground.

Large-scale retrieval algorithm is problem for visual analyses applications, along its research track. In this paper, we propose a high-efficiency region division-based image retrieve approaches, which fuse low-level local color histogram feature and texture feature. A novel image region division is proposed to roughly mimic the location distribution of image color and deal with the color histogram failing to describe spatial information. Furthermore, for optimizing our region division retrieval method, an image descriptor combining local color histogram and Gabor texture features with reduced feature dimensions are developed. Moreover, we propose an extended Canberra distance method for images similarity measure to increase the fault-tolerant ability of the whole large-scale image retrieval. Extensive experimental results on several benchmark image retrieval databases validate the superiority of the proposed approaches over many recently proposed color-histogram-based and texture-feature-based algorithms.

In this paper, we propose a new color histogram model for object tracking. The proposed model incorporates the color arrangement of the target that encodes the relative spatial distribution of the colors inside the object. Using the color arrangement, we can determine which color bin is more reliable for tracking. Based on the proposed color histogram model, we derive a mean shift framework using a modified Bhattacharyya distance. In addition, we present a method of updating an object scale and a target model to cope with changes in the target appearance. Unlike conventional mean shift based methods, our algorithm produces satisfactory results even when the object being tracked shares similar colors with the background.

정확하게 피부 색상을 검출하는 방법은 얼굴 인식 및 추적, 표정 인식, 성인 영상 검출, 헬스케어 등의 다양한 분야에서 매우 유용하게 사용된다. 본 논문에서는 일반광과 실내 조명이 더해진 환경에서 피사체의 거리를 변경하면서, 그리고피사체배경의색상을변경함에따라다양한피부색상검출알고리즘의성능을비교평가한다. 실험대상은 피부톤의 차이를 보이는 남자 2명과 여자 한 명이고, 배경을 화이트, 블랙, 오렌지, 핑크, 옐로우의 5가지 색으로 구분하여 테스트를 하였다. 성능 평가에 사용한 피부색상 추출 알고리즘은 Peer 알고리즘, NNYUV, NNHSV, LutYUV, Kismet 알고리즘이며, 카메라와 피사체 사이의 거리는 60cm에서 120cm 사이로 한정하여 실험을 하였다. 성능 측정 실험 결과 피사체의 배경 변화에 따른 알고리즘이 성능의 차이를 보이는데, 전반적으로 뉴럴 네트워크를 이용한 NNHSV, NNYUV, 그리고 LutYUV이 안정적인 결과를 보여주었으며, 나머지 알고리즘들은 배경의 변화에 따라 피부색상 검출율이 영향을 많이 받았다. 본 논문에서 보여준 다양한 성능 평가 결과들은 피사체의 주변 환경이 동적으로 변화하는 실제 환경에서 상황에 따라 적응적이고 정확도가 높은 피부 색상 추출 알고리즘을 개발하는데 효과적으로 활용될 것으로 기대된다.
