“…The basic principle of CAPTCHA is to ask the user " a problem that is easy for humans but diffi cult for machines " and determine whether the answerer is a human. Currently, mainstream CAPTCHA has a text type that displays a distorted character for reading and an image type that allows a specifi c image to be selected from the displayed images [3][4][5]. Unfortunately, despite the existence of several types of CAPTCHAs, many of them have been compromised owing to the development of powerful artificial intelligence and image recognition algorithms [6][7][8][9][10][11].…”

This study focuses on the human ability to tolerate subtle diff erences in color and categorize similar colors into a single mass to enhance completely automated public turing test to tell computers and humans apart (CAPTCHA). First, an experiment was conducted to check whether the color selection condition could control the color categorization results. Consequently, it was clarifi ed that when the selection condition was added, the color to be categorized changed, implying the possibility of controlling the categorized result. Subsequently, an investigation was conducted to clarify the range of liquid crystal display colors categorized as major color names. As a result, it was clarified that the hue angle size of the colors categorized by more than half of the participants was sometimes greater than the hue angle size between the primary and complementary colors. It was also clarifi ed that among the categorized colors, there were categorized colors in the two color names. Finally, results from the fi rst and second experiments were collated. It was confi rmed that by using the categorized color range and selection conditions, it is possible to obtain an answer with a color name that is diff erent from the original color name. These results suggest that the ability of humans to categorize similar colors into a single mass enhances CAPTCHA.
