The processes of the first statistical method (the method of arrangement in frequency order) are as follows. 1) drawing up all colors in frequency order. 2) picking up some colors in high positions. 3) deciding 120 standard colors, (the standard color A) The processes of the second method (the method of diminution of color perceptional difference) are as follows 1) selecting some temporarr standard colors and dividing Munsell color space into their territories. 2) calculating total of color perceptional differences between temporary standard colors and colors in their territories. 3) selecting again another temporary standard colors in order to diminish total of color perceptional differences. 4) repeating the processes from (2) to (3). 5) deciding 123 standard colors, (the standard color B) The characteristics of the standard color B is very different from the A.
