Abstract

Since there are many ampoule injection medicines, it is important to make their labels easily distinguishable because confusing labels may lead to fatal accidents caused by administering the wrong medicine by mistake. In this paper, we utilize Fourier series expansion and wavelet transformation to extract the characteristics in labels and propose an index to measure similarity that we feel toward ampoule labels to prevent confusion in label designs. We also discuss a way of parameterizing colors.
