Abstract:
This data article includes the visual stimuli used to test the categorization of a set of soft drink bottle silhouettes. Additionally, subjects' perceptual categorization was associated with each visual stimuli. The silhouette of the soft drink bottles was characterized by calculating the most common object shape measurements such as width, height and area and combining them with more complex and specific quantitative shape measurements such as the principal moment statistics. Finally, this data article includes the code for extracting these shape characteristics from image silhouettes. For interpretation and discussion, please see the original article entitled "Quantitative analysis of product categorization in soft drinks using bottle silhouettes" (Arboled and Arce-Lopera, 2015) [1].
