Is it coral, salmon, or peach? What seems like a simple color can have many names, and without a standard, these variations create confusion across design, technology, and communication. Color naming is a fundamental task across industries such as fashion, cosmetics, web design, and visualization tools. However, the lack of universally accepted color naming standards leads to inconsistent color standards across platforms, applications, and industries. Moreover, these systems include hundreds or thousands of overlapping, perceptually indistinct shades, despite the fact that humans typically distinguish only a limited number of unique color categories in practice. In this study, we propose a clustering-based multisource data framework to build a standardized color-naming system. We collected a dataset of over 19,555 RGB values paired with color names from 20 diverse sources. After data cleaning and normalization, we converted the colors to the perceptually uniform CIELAB color space and applied K-means clustering using the CIEDE2000 color difference metric, identifying 280 optimal clusters. For each cluster, we performed a frequency analysis of the associated names to assign representative labels. The resulting system reflects naturally occurring linguistic patterns. We demonstrate its effectiveness in automatic annotation and content-based image retrieval on a clothing dataset. This approach opens new opportunities for standardized, perceptually grounded color labeling in practical applications such as generative AI, visual search, and design systems.

Color representation is essential in computer vision and human-computer interaction. There are multiple color models available. The choice of a suitable color model is critical for various applications. This paper presents a review of color models and spaces, analyzing their theoretical foundations, computational properties, and practical applications. We explore traditional models such as RGB, CMYK, and YUV, perceptually uniform spaces like CIELAB and CIELUV, and fuzzy-based approaches as well. Additionally, we conduct a series of experiments to evaluate color models from various perspectives, like device dependency, chromatic consistency, and computational complexity. Our experimental results reveal gaps in existing color models and show that the HS* family is the most aligned with human perception. The review also identifies key strengths and limitations of different models and outlines open challenges and future directions This study provides a reference for researchers in image processing, perceptual computing, digital media, and any other color-related field.

Computer vision applications are omnipresent nowadays. The current paper explores the use of fuzzy logic in computer vision, stressing its role in handling uncertainty, noise, and imprecision in image data. Fuzzy logic is able to model gradual transitions and human-like reasoning and provides a promising approach to computer vision. Fuzzy approaches offer a way to improve object recognition, image segmentation, and feature extraction by providing more adaptable and interpretable solutions compared to traditional methods. We discuss key fuzzy techniques, including fuzzy clustering, fuzzy inference systems, type-2 fuzzy sets, and fuzzy rule-based decision-making. The paper also discusses various applications, including medical imaging, autonomous systems, and industrial inspection. Additionally, we explore the integration of fuzzy logic with deep learning models such as convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to enhance performance in complex vision tasks. Finally, we examine emerging trends such as hybrid fuzzy-deep learning models and explainable AI.
