Parametric fuzzy sets for automatic color naming.
In this paper we present a parametric model for automatic color naming where each color category is modeled as a fuzzy set with a parametric membership function. The parameters of the functions are estimated in a fitting process using data derived from psychophysical experiments. The name assignments obtained by the model agree with previous psychophysical experiments, and therefore the high-level color-naming information provided can be useful for different computer vision applications where the use of a parametric model will introduce interesting advantages in terms of implementation costs, data representation, model analysis, and model updating.
