: KANSEI TEXTURE ("Shokushitsu-kan" in Japanese) is defined as a quantitative sensation index on 5D [-1,1] 5 cube, where five elements (Roughness, Hardness, Dryness, Warmness, Glossiness) are accepted with 120 selected onomatopoeia words. It aims to represent visual and/or texture information of an object photo/movie for compensating the information gap between the real object and its photo/movie image. The five dimensional cube for KANSEI TEXTURE is compressed to three-dimensional cube [-1,1] 3 by doing cognitive experiments with PCA (Principal Component Analysis), and its visualization representation is also proposed for the easy use by general people. The proposal is expected to be used to get visual/tactile perception of the objects in net shopping, robot vision, telemedicine, e-learning, and others, where the real objects are not available but only their still/dynamic images with brief text explanation are obtainable.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
