ColorPoetry: Multi-Sensory Experience of Color with Poetry in Visual Arts Appreciation of Persons with Visual Impairment

Visually impaired visitors experience many limitations when visiting museum exhibits, such as a lack of cognitive and sensory access to exhibits or replicas. Contemporary art is evolving in the direction of appreciation beyond simply looking at works, and the development of various sensory technologies has had a great influence on culture and art. Thus, opportunities for people with visual impairments to appreciate visual artworks through various senses such as hearing, touch, and smell are expanding. However, it is uncommon to provide a multi-sensory interactive interface for color recognition, such as integrating patterns, sounds, temperature, and scents. This paper attempts to convey a color cognition to the visually impaired, taking advantage of multisensory coding color. In our previous works, musical melodies with different combinations of pitch, timbre, velocity, and tempo were used to distinguish vivid (i.e., saturated), light, and dark colors. However, it was rather difficult to distinguish among warm/cool/light/dark colors with using sound cues only. Therefore, in this paper, we aim to build a multisensory color-coding system with combining sound and poem such that poem leads to represent more color dimensions, such as including warm and cool colors for red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple. To do this, we first performed an implicit association test to identify the most suitable poem among the candidate poems to represent colors in artwork by finding the common semantic directivity between the given candidate poem with voice modulation and the artwork in terms of light/dark/warm/color dimensions. Finally, we conducted a system usability test on the proposed color-coding system, confirming that poem will be an effective supplement for distinguishing between vivid, light, and dark colors with different color appearance dimensions, such as warm and cold colors. The user experience score of 15 college students was 75.1%, that was comparable with the color-music coding system that received a user experience rating of 74.1%. with proven usability.


Introduction
Multimodal (or multisensory) integration refers to the neural integration or combination of information from different sensory modalities (the classic five senses of vision, hearing, touch, taste, and smell, and, perhaps less obviously, proprioception, kinesthesis, pain, and the vestibular senses), which gives rise to changes in behavior associated with the perception of and reaction to those stimuli. Information is typically integrated across sensory modalities when the sensory inputs share certain common features [1].
Cross-modality refers to the interaction between two different sensory channels. Crossmodal correspondence is defined as the surprising associations that people experience between seemingly unrelated features, attributes, or dimensions of experience in different sensory modalities.
The intuitive strategies based on cross-modal analogy, association, and symbolism are suitable for creating a design that provides connections between the senses, which directly appear appropriate and easy to interpret [2].

Good poems produce sensational images in compressed and refined language. When you read a poem, the scene it describes seems to unfold before your eyes. Association is a phenomenon in which one idea evokes another. Five images found in poetry, for example, are as follows.
Sound: the wind attenuating the acoustic image 3.
Olfactory: The smell of grass flowers 4.
Synesthesia: blue whistling sound

Review on Review on Color Association with Sound
Recently, the following works were devised to materialize multi-sensory appreciation for the color of artworks for the visually impaired [24]. An experiment comparing the cognitive capacity for color codes found that users could intuitively recognize 24 chromatic and 5 achromatic colors with tactile pictogram codes [25] and 18 chromatic and 5 achromatic colors with sound codes [26].
Cho et al. [25] presented a tactile color pictogram system to communicate the color information of visual artworks. The tactile color pictogram uses the shape of sky, earth, and human derived from the oriental philosophy of heaven, earth, and human as a metaphor. The tactile color pictogram used a slightly larger cell size compared to most tactile patterns currently used to indicate color, but code for more colors due to its simple structure. With user experience and identification tests, conducted with 23 visually impaired adults, the effectiveness of the tactile color pictogram suggested that they were helpful for the participants. Colors can thus be recognized easily and intuitively by touching the different patterns.
What the art teacher wanted to do most with her blind students was to have them imagine colors using a variety of senses-touch, scent, music, poetry, or literature. A comprehensive survey of associations between color and sound can be found in [24], including how different color properties such as value and hue are mapped onto acoustic properties such as pitch and loudness. Cho et al. [26] developed a sound coding color ( Table 2) to express red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple using a melody (length: about 10 s) excerpted from a Classic music video with different musical instruments, intensity, and pitch of sound to express vivid, light, and dark colors. In Reference [26], musical instruments were classified for each color to ensure that they would be easily distinguished from one another. Red, a representative warm color, is expressed by a violin that plays a passionate and strong melody. A trumpet plays a high-pitched melody with energy, as if a bright light were expanding, to simulate yellow bursts. Orange is expressed by a viola playing a warm yet energetic melody. Green, which makes the eyes feel comfortable and psychologically stable, is expressed by a fresh oboe that plays a soft melody. Blue, a representative cold color, is expressed by a cello that plays a low, calm melody. Violet, where warm red and cold blue coexist, is expressed by a pipe organ that plays a magnificent yet solemn melody.
Vivid colors and bright and dark colors were distinguished through a combination of pitch, instrument tone, intensity, and tempo. High color lightness used a small, light, particle-like melody and high-pitch sounds, and a bright feeling was emphasized by using a melody of relatively fast and high notes. For low color lightness, a slow, dull melody with a relatively low range was used to create a sense of separation and movement away from the user.  In Reference [26], the overall color composition of Van Gogh's "The Starry Night" was expressed as a single piece of music that accounted for color using the tone, key, tempo, and pitch of the instruments. To express the highly saturated (vivid) blue of the night sky, which dominates the overall hue of the picture, a strong, clear melody in the mid-range was excerpted from the Bach unaccompanied cello suite No. 1 to form the base of the whole song, and it is played repeatedly without interruption. To express the twinkling bright yellow of the stars, a light particle-like melody was extracted from Haydn's Trumpet Concerto and played as a strong, clear melody in the mid-range. The painting was divided into four lines, and worked with 16 bars per line, producing a total of 68 bars played in 3 min and 29 s. The user experience evaluation rate from nine blind people was 84%, and the user experience scores from eight sighted participants were 79% and 80% for the Classical and Vivaldi schemes, respectively. After one hour of practice, the cognitive success rate for three blind people was 100% for both the Classical and Vivaldi schemes. Here, we show another example of composing a single music piece representing colors in Van Gogh's "The starry night", as shown in Table 3.

Bartolome et al. [27] expressed color and depth (advancing and retreating) as temperature and demonstrated the temperature-sensitive replica of Marc Rosco's work using a thermoelectric Peltier element and a control board. For the sighted people, at some point of the test, eight of the ten users agreed that the conceptual dichotomies warm-near and cold-far were correlated. This fact was proven during the test with persons with visual impairment, where 83% of the users (a total of five out of six) linked in both stages the warm temperature to the concept of being near something, and the cold temperature to the concept of being far [27].
Using an implicit associations test, Anikin et al. [28] confirmed the following crossmodal correspondences between visual and acoustic features. Pitch was associated with color lightness, whereas loudness mapped onto greater visual saliency. The hue of colors with the same luminance and saturation was not associated with any of the tested acoustic features, except for a weak preference to match higher pitch with blue (vs. yellow).
In the Doppler effect, the response of sound waves to moving bodies is illustrated in the example of the sounding of the locomotive whistle of a moving train. When the train blows its whistle while it is at rest in the station, stationary listeners who are either ahead of the engine or behind it will hear the same pitch made by the whistle, but as the train advances, those who are ahead will hear the sound of the whistle at a higher pitch. Listeners behind the train, as it pulls further away from them, hear the pitch of the whistle begin to fall [29]. Using such a principle, depth information of a color object located close to the viewer's gaze can be expressed by voice. In other words, if you increase the intensity of the voice, the color will feel close and intense. However, if you weaken the sound intensity, the color will feel pale and distant.
Jonas et al. [30] and Cogan et al. [31] found that a higher value in lightness is associated with higher pitch. Another way to match color and sound is to associate an instrument's tone with color, as in Kandinsky [32]. A low-pitched cello has a low-brightness dark blue color, a violin or trumpet-like instrument with a sharp tone feels red or yellow, and a high-pitched flute feels like a bright and saturated sky blue. As shown in Table 1, it is possible to compare the sensibility felt in each instrument tone with the sensibility felt Bartolome et al.

As shown in Table 1, it is possible to compare the sensibility felt in each instrument tone with the sensibility felt in color. Chroma has a relationship with sound intensity [33,34]. This color encoding problem is the same as finding the entropy introduced in Claude Shannon's Theory of Information. Entropy is the average (estimated) minimum resources required to provide information in an event.
Marks et al. [35] found that children of all ages and adults matched pitch to value and loudness to chroma. The value (i.e., lightness) is high and heavy, dependent on the light and dark levels of the color. Using the same concept in music, sound is divided into light and heavy feelings according to the high and low octaves of a scale. When the intensity of the sound is strong, the color sensed is close and sharp, whereas when the intensity of the sound is weak, the color becomes distant and muted [35]. Wilms and Oberfeld [36] observed that the increase of the arousal ratings from low to medium to high brightness is only present at the two higher saturation levels (among three levels). For the arousal dimension, it ranges from a relaxed, sleepy figure to an excited, wide-eyed figure. By Rowe [37], warm sound has a tilt towards the bass frequencies. The bass and vocals are more prominent, "bright" is the opposite of warm. Bright gear is better at reproducing high-pitched sounds.
Synesthete prevalence among fine-art students was estimated to be 23% [38]. Among various synesthesia due to color (N = 365), colored graphemes are the most common form occurring in two-thirds (66.8%) of a group of 365 synesthetes, and colored time units 19.2%, colored musical sounds 14.5%, and colored general sounds 12.1% [39]. Chromesthesia or sound-to-color synesthesia is a type of synesthesia in which sound involuntarily evokes an experience of color, shape, and movement [40]. Synesthetes that perceive color while listening to music experience the colors in addition to the normal auditory sensations. In Reference [41], synesthetes and non-synesthetes alike associate high-pitched sounds with lighter or brighter colors and low-pitched sounds with darker colors. For some individuals, chromesthesia is only triggered by speech sounds, while others' chromesthesia can be triggered by any auditory stimuli [42]. In a study investigating variability within categories of synesthesia, 40% of subjects with chromesthesia for spoken words reported that voice pitch, accent, and prosody influenced the synesthetic color [43].

Review on Color Association with Other Senses
Areas that are relatively high in chroma and lightness can seem to "come forward" in the sense of being visually more insistent than other areas, and orange-red, orange, and yellow paints attain higher chroma-lightness combinations than paints of other hues [44]. We can see through experience, that lighter, cooler colors seem to recede, thus making a room feel larger (giving it more "room"), while warmer, more saturated, and darker colors seem to advance, and take up more space in a room, thus making it appear smaller [45].
Ludwig and Simner [46] found that smooth, soft, and round stimuli tended to induce brighter colors, compared to rough, hard, and spiky stimuli.
In Slobodenyuk et al. [47], participants were asked to use colors to describe vibrotactile stimuli of varying frequencies and intensities, simulating variations in roughnesssmoothness, heaviness-lightness, elasticity-inelasticity, and adhesiveness-non-adhesiveness. Analysis of the hue, chroma, and brightness of the chosen colors showed a bias towards the red, violet, and blue spectra of hue for the highest intensity haptic stimuli, and toward yellow and green for the lowest intensity, for which green colors were chosen the least. The least intense stimuli also had the lowest level of chroma and highest level of brightness, whereas the opposite was true for the most intense stimuli [47].
There are also indications of hedonic scores mediating cross-modal interactions of odors and colors. Namely, bright colors tend to be rated as pleasant, while darker colors tend to be found more unpleasant (Maric and Jacquot [48]). Strong fragrances are associated with dark colors (Kemp and Gilbert [49]), and there are research results that state that floral fragrances are associated with bright colors (Fiore [50]).
Kim [47] found that the floral and woody families showed more distinguishable opposite patterns in both hue and tone parameters: the floral family with brighter warm colors and the woody family with darker (or stronger) cool colors. The warm colors strongly evoked the floral family, while the cool colors the fresh family. The brighter (darker) their   Table 5.

Proposed ColorPoetry System
This section describes 'ColorPoetry', a systematic approach to color expression aids using poetry. The proposed system can explicitly model the color directivity of poems and effectively matches the color appearance dimension (vivid/light/dark/cool) of artwork and poem. Using a user study, we demonstrate that our color-coding scheme can effectively match colors in artwork with poems and provide a significantly higher user experience. We envision that this color-coding system utilizing poems will enable many useful applications in appreciating visual arts for the sighted people as well as people with visual impairment.

Color Selection
The perception of color is often described by referring to three dimensions of the color experiences: hue, intensity, and value. There are four visual perceptive terms that are used to describe color appearance, as defined below [44].
Hue: Hue could also be called "root" or "source" color. The hue is always one of the 12 key color places on the basic color wheel (Figure 1).

Hue: Hue could also be called "root" or "source" color. The hue is always one of the 12 key color places on the basic color wheel (Figure 1). Value: The value of a color is always going to be compared against a basic palette of white, grey, or black. A color's value refers to the quality that distinguishes a light color from a dark one. In other words, it refers to the lightness or darkness of a hue.
Intensity: Intensity is more commonly called "saturation". To measure a brightness of any given color, it is first necessary to identify the root hue/color it is most closely related to. This is usually one of the two neighboring colors that sit next to it on the color wheel. Then, the new color's intensity can be characterized in terms of "brightness" or "dullness" as related to the predominant root hue.
Temperature: Temperature is perhaps the most subjective of the four basic color qualities outlined by Itten. It is also in this quality where it is easiest to see the emotional relationship Itten himself had with color. Temperature is expressed in terms of warm or cool.
Cho et al. [26] investigated that melodies with different pitch, tone, velocity, and tempo can be used as color sound codes to easily express the color lightness level. However, the number of colors that can be represented by sound was limited to 18 (three levels of brightness for each of six hues). In this paper, using poems, we extend the number of colors to be expressed up to 30, including warmer and cooler colors of each hue. In this way, the visually impaired can improve their color literacy to enjoy the colorful world in the painting. In this perspective, the extension can be done by using sounds to represent six color hues (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, violet) and poems to represent light/dark and warm/cool colors, simultaneously. In other words, the six color hues like red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and violet on the 12 RYB color wheel, Figure 1, are represented by sound codes. The six tertiary colors are warm and cool colors of red, yellow, and blue, such as red-orange (the warm color of R), red-violet (the cool color of R), yellow-orange Value: The value of a color is always going to be compared against a basic palette of white, grey, or black.

Also, 12 lighter and darker colors from 6 color hues are also represented by sound (color hue) and poem (to represent the lighter or darker colors of the color hue) together. Also, there are five achromatic colors: white (WH), black (BK), and three levels of grays (dark gray, middle gray, light gray). In this system, the higher the lightness value, the closer the color is to white, and the lower the lightness, the closer it is to black. As shown in Figure 2, the light color (L) has a value of 7 and chroma of 8. The dark color (D) has a value of 3 and a chroma of 8.

Algorithm of Poetry Coding Colors
In this section, we explore the poem coding colors representing five color appearance dimensions. First, we need to identify the poems that feels "good" for the color appearance dimension used in the visual artwork. Next, we express such color appearance dimension using three levels of voice pitches respectively, while reciting a poem. Therefore, combining voice sounds and poems in this way makes it simpler and easier to identify color, including light, dark, warm, and cool colors, compared to the conventional way of using a single modality such as sound, tactile pattern, or temperature alone. Given an artwork image A and a set of poems DP, as illustrated in Table 6, the goal is to find the set of poems P ∈ DP that are mostly relevant to the color appearance dimension directivity of the image. Let S(A) (respectively S(P)) be denoted as a measure of the overall color appearance dimensions observed in artwork A (respectively P). We are now ready to describe the ColorPoetry Algorithm 1 as follows. The purpose of the algorithm is to find the set of "good" poems P with the maximum significance of Art-Poem similarity score denoted by sigmax S(A, P): Algorithm 1 ColorPoetry (i.e., Poetry Coding Colors). Input: a color C in an artwork A, a poem database DP. Output: a set of poems P ∈ DP. 1: For every color in C Identify the set of poems P, finding sigmax S (A, P), for all P ∈ DP. 2: Return P.

Overall Solution Strategy
There are three main steps to solving the problem.
(1) Determine poem database. Color poems are about a single color, using descriptions, nouns, and other key elements to express feelings about that color. An easy format for this type of poem is describing the color using the five senses: looks, sounds, tastes, feels, and smells. From Wikipedia, lyric poetry is a form of poetry that does not attempt to tell a story, as do epic poetry and dramatic poetry, but is of a more personal nature instead. Rather than portraying characters and actions, the lyric poet addresses the reader directly, portraying his or her own feelings, states of mind, and perceptions. In the poems, colors are used as a metaphor or to express the context in the poem, and we mainly collected them extensively through browsing relevant websites like "poemhunter.com" [48], and literature. The color database we built consists of 12-15 poems with different moods for each of the 6 hues: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, including white, grey, and black. These poems are selectively analyzed and selected according to the appearance dimensions of the color in a given artwork.

The perceptual semantic difference method is used to establish a rigorous sensory analysis process to evaluate algorithms to find phrases in poetry that match the color of a given artwork. To reflect the user's perception of color perception, it is necessary to use a set of color-related perceptual adjectives that have been validated in psychological research. The amount and fidelity of the collection of perceptual adjectives affects the quality of the research data. Adjectives that describe colors have been extensively collected through the existing literature.
(3) Data analysis and user experience test. The results of the evaluation of the correlation between the perceptual meanings of the colors that appeared in artwork and poetry were analyzed with statistical tools. The user experience test of the proposed color-coding system will be performed through user interviews.

Voice Modulation
Four color properties such as light/dark/warm/cool can be expressed by voice, so the brightness of the color is modulated according to the pitch of the sound, and the degree of warmth and coolness of the color can be expressed by the strength and reverberation of the voice. A voice was produced using adobe audition. To express the lighter color in voice, the pitch was raised by 2.5 semitones from the original voice. To express darker color in voice, the pitch was lowered by 5 semitones from the original voice. To express vivid (i.e., highly intense) color in voice, the speed was stretched to 75% from the original voice and made it faster. To express warmer color in voice, a stereo-reflection plate was set among presets at full reverb and amplified +2.5 dB from the original voice. Finally, to express cool color in voice, "deserted room" was set among presets in full reverb. Two experimental artworks are illustrated to evaluate the usability of the appreciation method for the colors of artworks for the visually impaired that have been confirmed through such a test. Two versions of voice modulation were made and used according to preference: (1) the first version (called "word") with the corresponding voice modulation applied for each color word, and (2) the second version (called "phrase") in which the words contained in the same line related to the color are applied with the same voice modulation corresponding to the color.

Use Cases
Here, Vincent van Gogh's 1889 work 'The Starry Night' (Modern museum of art, NY) and Henri Matisse's 1910 work 'Dance' (Hermitage Museum, Saint Petersburg) are illustrated as use cases. 'Starry Night' conceptually and dynamically expresses the fluctuating air of an invisible night sky. Matisse used only four colors: blue, green, orange, and red. These vivid hues create an intense contrast. Both of these works well match the conceptual elements of color, so they are suitable for testing the usefulness of how to appreciate works of art using multiple senses. One of two poems per color were selected from about 2000 color poems in the "poem hunter website" [52], as shown in Tables 6 and 7. The table also shows the vocal narration for coding each color in words and tones.     My favorite colors are green and brown. Green-leafed trees polka-dot our town.

Implicit Association Test to Find a Solution to the Problem of ColorPoetry
The purpose of this test is to find a solution to the algorithm described in Section 3.2 for the instance of Table 6. To do so, an implicit association test was performed to identify the intimacy of the color stimulus in the poems (Table 6) and the one in the artwork ("The starry night" by Van Gogh) through the intervention of a semantic differential adjective antonym in Tables 4 and 5. Fifteen students were recruited as participants of the experiment. The gender of the participants was 5 males and 10 females, and the average age was 22.3 years (minimum 20 years old, maximum 27 years old). The number of participants with music and literature experience is 9 and 5, and the average number of years they have experienced is 5.5 years and 3.5 years (Figure 3). While participating in the experiment, repeated auditory stimulation may cause side effects such as headaches, and if physical or mental discomfort is felt, participants are informed in advance that they can request to stop the experiment at any time.  Osgood [66] simplified the semantic space of relative adjectives into three aspects: evaluation, efficacy, and activity. The pair of semantic derivatives that were adopted in this experiment, including some adjectives in [66], are the pair of adjectives (Tables 4 and  5) people are familiar with for the light, dark, warm, and cold color of each hue collected through literature research [24]. In our experiments, participants are asked to experience multiple imagery sensations (see the definition of imagery in Section 2.1) like not only sight, but also, sound, touch, and smell from the artwork (Van Gogh's "The starry night") and poems in Table 6, respectively. Imagery with those four sensations is used for participants to appreciate the colors in artwork and poems. The sound is produced by means of voice narration of poems adjusting the intensity, pitch, and reverberation to distinguish warm/cool/vivid/light/dark dimensions of colors (see Section 3.4) so that the sound is matched with the characteristics of colors in artwork.
Test participants experienced two poem stimuli in Table 6 expressing each color stimulus in the artwork and the colors described in the poems they thought were associated with that stimulus. For each artwork or poem stimulus, there were provided to the participants a total of 14 concept adjectives pairs in Tables 4 and 5. Table 8 illustrates an implicit association test questionnaire for the case of color stimuli "Blue sky and night" in artwork associated with Poem 1 and Poem 2. The following test guideline is given to the participants: "Based on your experience on each color in the artwork and two poems expressing the color today, check the box that reflects your immediate response to each adjective pair in the given table. Do not think too long to select a score among (2, 1, 0, −1, −2), and write it in each empty box. Make sure you respond to every adjective pair. Each of these 14 pairs of semantic differential adjectives, a visual feeling that is in context with the various sensations conveyed by the colors of art works or poem 1 and poem 2 is given 2 points for the closest one to the former, 1 point for the closer one to the former, −1 point for the closer to the latter, −2 points for the closest to the latter. Otherwise, if you don't know how to respond, simply score 0." In this way, the similarity of Art-Poem Association with respect to colors denoted as The participants first completed a training session that lasted approximately an hour, followed by an hour of evaluation. During the training session, the participants familiarized themselves with the concept behind the sound (modulated voices) and poem to be used to express various color appearance dimensions through tutorial materials, Tables 1-7, and Figures 1 and 2. The sound source and user testimonial questions to be used in the experiment were distributed just before the experiment began. After orientation, participants were presented with sound and voice clips shown in Tables 2, 3, 6 and 7. After that, the participants evaluated the implicit association and user experience.

Otherwise, if you don't know how to respond, simply score 0." In this way, the similarity of Art-Poem Association with respect to colors denoted as S (A, P) for each of the two stimuli A and P is measured. Test results are shown in Figure 4. Then, the set of poems P having sigmax S (A, P) (as defined in Section 3.2) is selected to represent the color C in the artwork.
We measured cosine similarity between two vectors (like artwork A and poem P). The values of two vectors should be positive. Thus, the score range of (2, 1, 0, −1, −2) was replaced with (4, 3, 2, 1, 0). Since the similarity is measured by the cosine value of the angle formed by two vectors, the cosine similarity gets closer to 1 as the angle is smaller, and closer to 0 as the angle is larger. We obtained the similarity for Blue sky: S (A, P1) = 0.978 and S (A, P2) = 0.901, for Blue wind: S (A, P4) = 0.871 and S (A, P5) = 0.203, and for Green cypress: S (A, P7) = 0.501 and S (A, P8) = 0.569, respectively. According to the analysis based on cosine similarity, the three poems P1, P4, and P8 showed the most consistent dark blue, light blue, and dark green directivity respectively, among the poems used in the experiment settings.

The average of adjective pairs was calculated for each experiment participant, and the difference between P1 and A and the difference between P2 and A was calculated, and the absolute value was taken. Respondents whose value is closer to 0 means that the difference between P and A is smaller. The differences between P1 and A and between P2 and A, which is the average of the larger one, were verified through a paired t-test. As a result of the verification, the verification statistics were t (14) = −1.46, p = 0.17 (two-tail verification), which could not be said to be statistically significant. The differences between P4 and A and between P5 and A, which is the average of the larger one, were verified through a paired t-test.
As a result of the verification, the verification statistics were t (14) = −2.06, p = 0.03 (two-tail verification), and there was a significant difference within the significance level of 5%. That is, P4 is statistically significant compared to P5 and is similar to A. The differences between P7 and A and between P8 and A, which was larger on average, were verified through a paired t-test. As a result of the verification, the verification statistics were t (14) = −0.09, p = 0.46 (two-tail verification), which could not be said to be statistically significant. According to these analyses, we reject P5 that showed the significant difference from P4. Therefore, finally, we could confirm that the set of poems (P1, P2, P4, P7, P8) are determined to be the set of "good" poems with the maximum significance of the Art-Poem similarity score with respect to each corresponding color stimulus.

As a result of the experiment conducted to find out the color directivity of each poem, the poem that showed the most consistent color directivity was P1. For P1, the adjectives chosen by the participants as they feel most suitable are cool (vision), calm (vision), far (vision), dark (vision), low (sound), strong (vision), rough (haptic), heavy (sound), woody (scent), round (haptic), and weak (scent), in the order of their preferences. Among them, the adjectives of the same directivity (positive or negative) in both artwork and P1 with having an intensity of 0.7 or more appear as cool (vision), calm (vision), far (vision), and dark (vision). It can be seen that the four adjectives matched well with the color characteristic of "blue sky at night". Therefore, we see that the poem P1 exhibits a wider variety of color appearance dimensions, including color temperature, color depth, and color emotion, as well as color lightness.
On the other hand, pleasant-unpleasant (scent) and soft-hard (haptic) were not such a case. Participants reacted "pleasantly" for artwork and unpleasantly for p1, showing the opposite directivity. In addition, participants responded with "hard" for artwork and "soft" for P1. However, their intensity of directivity was too weak, around 0.1~0.4. In addition, "weak-strong (scent)" was shown as "0" (random) in both artwork and P1.

Usability Test and Result
In the usability evaluation experiment, the SUS (System Usability Score) test was executed. During the SUS test, our proposed method "ColorPoetry" in this paper was compared with "ColorSound" [26]. Fifteen participants who also attended the implicit association test described in Section 3 were asked the following question: "Based on your experience on two color codes: ColorSound [26] and ColorPoetry today, score each of 10 items of SUS test set that reflects your immediate response to each statement. Don't think too long about each statement. Make sure you respond to every statement. If you strongly disagree then score 1, and if you strongly agree then score 5. Otherwise, if you don't know how to respond, simply score 3." As a result of the analysis as shown in Figure 5, the ColorPoetry received good scores (74.5%), comparable to ColorSound (74.1%) in the user experience test ( Figure 5). ColorSound was produced similarly to [17] for comparison purposes and was not discussed in detail during the training session, so it received a lower score than the score received in the previous study [26].

Col-orSound was produced similarly to [17] for comparison purposes and was not discussed in detail during the training session, so it received a lower score than the score received in the previous study [26].   Tables 10 and 11 list the participants' positive and negative feedback after reviewing the two color-coding systems, respectively. Most participants gave both positive and negative feedback. Two participants, C and L, who have more than 10 years of experience in playing musical instruments and 5 years of experiences in writing poems and literature, responded that "The system looks very efficient and very good to handle." On the contrary, in the negative evaluations other than the positive user feedback in Table 10, participants E and M, who do not have any experience in both music and literature, said, "It will be a little difficult if you don't understand the proper manual," and "If there is a simple explanation at first, it seems to be easy to use." The participant who provided negative feedback gave a low score on SUS statements 4 and 10 since they thought this system will need the support of a technical person and should learn while using this system.
Musical sound coding color is suitable for practical use because there are positive evaluations as a result of existing tests [26] when trying to convey colors by using instruments with characteristics that match the colors used in artworks with classical melodies. Representing the various color dimensions (e.g., distinguishing between warm, cool, light, and dark colors) itself into sound is a much more difficult and complex process than just using color names (with poetry, for example). The feeling that comes from a color is very subjective, so deciding which image to express with some effective sound or musical notes only is very difficult. Therefore, the current method of linking the characteristics of a musical instrument to the characteristics of color is objective and easy to access. Just as sighted people learn color names, blind people need to learn not only color names, but also musical codes that correspond to colors [26]. Table 12 shows conflicting user feedback and future works to resolve the conflict. A I felt the system's approach was very creative. I think two systems are easy to use and have a simple interface.

It does not require special technical knowledge, and I think it will be easy to use regardless of the individual characteristics of the user. D I think that it is a system that relies on human senses and feelings rather than going through thinking. E There seems to be no particular difficulty to use the system. I think they are common in everyday life, such as voices, colors, and poetry.
-I think that it is a system that relies on human senses and feelings rather than going through thinking.
I don't need any more knowledge to use the system, but I think that if you have background knowledge about music and poetry provided by the system, it will be of greater help in using the system.

F
It was easier to understand by making the sound different according to the color.

L
The system looks very efficient. This system was very good to handle.
M It seemed simple to use because you can hear and feel it right away.
At first, it was a little awkward to see how it works, but I think it will be useful afterwards Table 11. Negative user feedback from the System Usability Scale test.
A It was my first time using it, so I didn't feel confident about using the system because I was unfamiliar with it.

B
In the case of sound color, more diverse interpretations are possible depending on the user regardless of the matching between music and color. Therefore, it helps intuitive understanding that can be relative to each user. However, in the case of poetry, there may be various interpretations of the content for each user, and since the voice matched with poetry excludes such various possibilities, it is judged that it is difficult to feel intuitive from the user's point of view.
C It seems that you should be able to learn how to use it. E It will be a little difficult if you don't understand the proper manual.
G Poetry is okay because it is directly connected to color, but the voice with word is unnatural when savoring poetry. There is no big problem with both when it comes to integration.Poetry seems to be used a lot because the overall system is okay, but music is not. However, in the case of music, people who understand will use it a lot.

M
If there is a simple explanation at first, it seems to be easy to use.
O When I first listened without any explanation, it was a little difficult to evaluate or use.

Conflicted User Feedbacks Conflict Resolution (Future Works)
D: The sudden change of voice within a single paragraph seems to be unfamiliar yet. F: Having different voices with words could specifically indicate the meaning to be expressed. N: The voice with word units seems to have a more sophisticated feel. O: Applying the same voice to all words in a phrase that contains words related to color is more enjoyable and comfortable than applying a different voice to only words related to color.
These conflicted thoughts between participants can be mediated by using both methods of voice modulation, selectively considering the importance of delivering emotional and cognitive aspects of colors. Also, the voice delivery with modulation may be used limitedly, only for the key color words.
B: In the case of music provided in Color Sound, it provides a fairly structured service by varying the pitch and the instruments used, but I think the matching of poetry and color is quite random. G: The connection between musical instruments and colors is completely arbitrary without inevitable reasons. M: There was something I felt while listening to the song, but I don't think I felt that much about poetry.
Sound will be used for expressing color hues and poetry for expressing various color dimensions like warm, cool, light, dark, etc.

Discussion and Conclusions
Despite the availability of tactile graphics and audio guides, the visually impaired still face challenges in experiencing and understanding visual artworks. In previous works (as described in Section 2), musical melodies with different combinations of pitch, timbre, velocity, and tempo were used to distinguish vivid (i.e., saturated), light, and dark colors. However, it was rather difficult to distinguish among warm/cool/light/dark colors with using sound cues only. The way to use poems together when appreciating works has the advantage of enhancing the expressiveness of one work. These motivated us to develop a systematic algorithm to automate the generation of poetry that can be applied consistently to artworks, especially to help visually impaired users to perceive colors in the artworks. Therefore, in this paper, we presented a methodology to create poetry that matched well with a given artwork to ascertain whether a person with a visual impairment can interact with color through sound and poetry together without a complex learning process. Although several researchers have previously performed art-poetry matching, to the best of our knowledge, there is no art-poetry matching for the purpose of conveying different color dimensions such as warmth, coolness, lightness, and darkness. Moreover, there is no previous works that suggest a method of providing poems suitable for the various senses (sight, touch, hearing, smell) of the artwork.
In our experiments, an implicit association test was performed to identify the most suitable poem among the candidate poems to represent colors in artwork by finding the common semantic directivity between the given candidate poem with voice modulation and the artwork in terms of light/dark/warm/color dimensions. From the test, we found that the poem P1, for example, exhibited a wider variety of color appearance dimensions, including color temperature, color depth, and color emotion, as well as color lightness that matched well with "Blue sky and night" in Van Gogh's "The starry night".
Xu et al. [67] propose a memory-based neural model which exploits images to generate poems. Zhang et al. [68] presented a new image-driven poetry recommender system that takes a traveler's photo as input and recommends classical poems that can enrich the photo with aesthetically pleasing quotes from the poems. They developed a heterogeneous information network and neural embedding techniques. However, they did not take color matters with extensive implicit association tests into account. In this paper, a system usability test was also performed and user experience scores from 15 college student participants were 75.1%, which was comparable with the color-music coding system that received a user experience rating of 74.1%. After training three congenitally blind adults for about one hour, the recognition rate of 18 colors (6 hues and their 3 levels of lightness) using the color-music coding system [17] was 100%.
Even though the magic number 5 rule (Nielsen and Landauer, 1993) is vastly known and used for usability testing, the sample size is a long-running debate. Lamontagne et al. [69] investigated how many users are needed in usability testing to identify negative phenomena caused by a combination of the user interface and the usage context. They focused on identifying psychophysiological pain points (i.e., emotionally irritant experienced by the users) during a human-computer interaction. Fifteen subjects were tested in a new user training context and results show that out of the total psychophysiological pain points experienced by fifteen participants, 82% of them were experienced with nine participants.
Eye tracking studies take time. For qualitative eye tracking tests where recordings are manually reviewed, 5 users will suffice, but it is necessary to recruit at least 39 participants for meaningful heatmaps and other visualization that aggregate the actions of many users [70]. In the implicit association test done by Greenwald et al. [71], 32 (13 male and 19 female) students from introductory psychology courses at the University of Washington participated in exchange for an optional course credit.
Therefore, as a future work, we will further perform scaled experiments on people with visual impairment as a future work, along with experiments to find significant differences in perception of the various levels of the visually impaired for the proposed solution.
These studies can enhance the mental imagery experience of color using one or more modalities, such as sounds and poetry, presented in this paper. For practical application, we can identify a set of phrases in poems in a larger sized database (poemhunter.com) that best fit the color dimensions of a given piece of artwork using the same method presented in this paper. In addition, due to the nature of the auditory code, the usability of hearing is higher than the sense of touch and smell, so it can be used in art textbooks for the visually impaired, and it is easy to carry and distribute. When using the mobile phone's touch screen, colors (hue) can be expressed as sounds, and at the same time, other color dimensions like color temperature and lightness can be expressed by poems, vibrations, or odor, as described in the literature survey [24]. In other words, an integrated multi-sensory platform can convey color images effectively, taking advantage of temperature, vibration, and scent, as well as sound and poetry.
