A Numerical Approach for Defining Basic Color Terms and Color Category Best Exemplars
A new method is presented for the identification of basic color terms (BCTs) from a language’s color-naming data. A function is defined to measure how well a term is understood in a communicating population. A threshold value is then constructed for this function to separate basic terms from other terms. Also, a new mathematical method is proposed and analyzed for determining the best exemplar ...
متن کاملConfidence Judgments on Color Category Best Exemplars
Although basic color terms and basic color appearances have been shown to produce higher confidence ratings in a variety of naming and judgment tasks, our findings suggest that when different ethnolinguistic cultures are compared, higher confidence is not strictly linked to the basic foci of Berlin and Kay nor the centroid samples identified by Boynton and colleagues. This raises important ques...
متن کاملThe Effects of Bilingualism on Basic Color Terms in Persian
This study is to determine how bilingualism could influence the list of Persian basic color terms and their order. Using a monolingual Persian and a bilingual Kurd sample students, and a color list task, it is assumed that bilingualism could change the ordering of the non-basic color terms in the second language, but not the basic ones. Another assumption is that, the old usual methods for obta...
متن کاملStatistically identifying basic color terms
Basic color terms were originally defined by Berlin and Kay based on linguistic definitions and refer to a subset of color expressions that are universal across languages. In this paper, we investigate and report that basic color terms demonstrate much stronger statistical characteristics that differentiate them from other color words. We introduce a probabilistic interpretation of color naming...
متن کاملImproving Perceptual Color Difference using Basic Color Terms
We suggest a new color distance based on two observations. First, perceptual color differences were designed to be used to compare very similar colors. They do not capture human perception for medium and large color differences well. Thresholding was proposed to solve the problem for large color differences, i.e. two totally different colors are always the same distance apart. We show that thre...
