PURPLE (RED-and-BLUE) is the most frequently occurring derived (binary) basic color term (BCT), but there is never a named composite BCT meaning RED-or-BLUE. GREEN-or-BLUE is the most frequently named composite color category, but there is never a BCT for the corresponding derived (binary) category CYAN (BLUE-and-GREEN). Why? Palmer notes that the naming of some but not all of the possible comp...

color had a special role in the human life. today psychologists use colors to do researches and recognition of people's mental characteristics. luscher's color test is further one of many well known tests. in the literature world a poet shows his way of thinking by using some special words. this research uses the luscher color test and measures the person's psychophysical state based on samih a...

Using a hue scaling technique, we have examined the appearance of colored spots produced by shifts from white to isoluminant stimuli along various color vectors in order to examine color appearance without the complications of the combined luminance and chromatic stimulation involved in most previous hue scaling studies, which have used flashes of monochromatic light. We also used spots lying a...

Both evolutionary considerations and recent research suggest that the color red serves as a signal indicating an object's importance. However, until now, there is no evidence that this signaling function of red is also reflected in human memory. To examine the effect of red on memory, we conducted four experiments in which we presented objects colored in four different colors (red, green, blue,...

Full-color displays have become commonplace with the advent of the Web. Typically they are rendered from desktop computers equipped with 16-bit color palettes capable of generating 65K unique colors. Thus a chart or scale is needed for making informed color selections for graphics applications. In SAS, the programmer has access to both the RGB (red/green/blue) and HLS (hue/light/saturation) cod...

UNLABELLED Accurate iris reproduction in the fabrication of ocular prosthesis in order to match the remaining eye is a key factor to mask the loss and achieve an esthetic outcome for anophthalmic patients. This study evaluated the stability of acrylic paints used for replicating iris color in ocular prostheses by the analysis of two factors: the temperature of the acrylic resin polymerization c...

Normal leaves of gardenia are glossy and dark green in color. Immature leaves may be a lighter green, but they are glossy and quite green even as they open from the bud. During the winters of 1934-35 and 1935-36 a chlorotic condition of the leaves of gardenia growing under glass caused serious concern to Massachusetts growers. The malady in its early stages is characterized by a gradual decreas...

The present research sought to extend the nascent literature on color and psychological functioning by examining whether perception of the color green facilitates creativity. In four experiments, we demonstrated that a brief glimpse of green prior to a creativity task enhances creative performance. This green effect was observed using both achromatic (white, gray) and chromatic (red, blue) cont...

One hallmark of vision in adults is the dichotomy between color and motion processing. Specifically, areas of the brain that encode an object's direction of motion are thought to receive little information about object color We investigated the development of this dichotomy by conducting psychophysical experiments with human subjects (2-, 3-, and 4-month-olds and adults), using a novel red-gree...

Demosaicking is a process of obtaining a full color image by interpolating the missing colors of an image captured from a digital still and video cameras that use a single-sensor array. In this study a new Color Filter Array (CFA) is proposed. Which is based on the actual weight of the Human Visual System. It is developed based on the sensitivity level of the human eye to red as 29.9%, green as...
