  2. Semiotic theory of Charles Sanders Peirce - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semiotic_theory_of_Charles...

    According to Peirce's Reduction Thesis, [12] (a) triads are necessary because genuinely triadic relations cannot be completely analyzed in terms of monadic and dyadic predicates, and (b) triads are sufficient because there are no genuinely tetradic or larger polyadic relations—all higher-arity n-adic relations can be analyzed in terms of ...

  3. Color scheme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_scheme

    This color scheme is the most varied color scheme because it uses six colors which are arranged into three complementary color pairs, or it could be seen as two color schemes that are complimentary to each other—such as two triadic color schemes or two near-analogous color schemes—or adding a complementary pair to a rectangular tetradic ...

  4. Trichotomy (philosophy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trichotomy_(philosophy)

    Charles Sanders Peirce built his philosophy on trichotomies and triadic relations and processes, and framed the "Reduction Thesis" that every predicate is essentially either monadic (quality), dyadic (relation of reaction or resistance), or triadic (representational relation), and never genuinely and irreducibly tetradic or larger.

  5. Tetrachromacy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetrachromacy

    The four pigments in a bird's cone cells (in this example, estrildid finches) extend the range of color vision into the ultraviolet. [1]Tetrachromacy (from Greek tetra, meaning "four" and chroma, meaning "color") is the condition of possessing four independent channels for conveying color information, or possessing four types of cone cell in the eye.

  6. Young–Helmholtz theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Young–Helmholtz_theory

    Thomas Young and Hermann von Helmholtz assumed that the eye's retina consists of three different kinds of light receptors for red, green and blue.. The Young–Helmholtz theory (based on the work of Thomas Young and Hermann von Helmholtz in the 19th century), also known as the trichromatic theory, is a theory of trichromatic color vision – the manner in which the visual system gives rise to ...

  7. Color vision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_vision

    Color vision, a feature of visual perception, is an ability to perceive differences between light composed of different frequencies independently of light intensity. Color perception is a part of the larger visual system and is mediated by a complex process between neurons that begins with differential stimulation of different types of ...

    Changes in the eye can help predict other health concerns in the body, such as diabetes and high blood pressure. A new study has identified a set of 29 vascular health indicators on the retina ...

  9. Opponent process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opponent_process

    Unique hues can differ between individuals and are often used in psychophysical research to measure variations in color perception due to color-vision deficiencies or color adaptation. [4] While there is considerable inter-subject variability when defining unique hues experimentally, [ 3 ] an individual's unique hues are very consistent, to ...
