Description

本発明は、人のくせ毛度合いを評価する方法に関する。   The present invention relates to a method for evaluating the degree of human hair.

毛髪の形状又はヘアスタイルは人の第一印象を決定付ける要素の一つであり、美容的観点や心理学的側面から様々な研究開発が行われている。また、毛髪の形状は法医学分野や人類学分野等においても重要な評価・研究の対象である。これらの研究開発において、毛髪の形状の実態を解析し、定義づけ、分類・評価していく際には、毛髪の形状を客観的、かつ定量的に数値化していくことが必要になる。更に、毛髪一本一本の形状を評価するだけではなく、個人としてのくせ毛度合いを評価し、その人の固有の値として数値化していくことも必要になる。従来、毛髪の形状を評価する方法には、以下に示すように、毛髪断面比率計測法、末端間距離比率計測法、カール径計測法等がある。   Hair shape or hair style is one of the factors that determine a person's first impression, and various research and development have been conducted from a cosmetic and psychological viewpoint. In addition, the shape of hair is an important subject of evaluation and research in the fields of forensic medicine and anthropology. In these research and development, when analyzing, defining, classifying and evaluating the actual shape of hair, it is necessary to quantify the hair shape objectively and quantitatively. Furthermore, it is necessary not only to evaluate the shape of each individual hair, but also to evaluate the degree of individual hair and digitize it as a unique value for that person. Conventionally, methods for evaluating the shape of hair include a hair cross-section ratio measurement method, an end-to-end distance ratio measurement method, and a curl diameter measurement method, as shown below.

毛髪断面比率計測法においては、毛髪断面が真円に近いほど直毛であるとの観点から、毛髪断面における最小径a、及び最大径bを測定し、毛髪の形状を真円率=(a/b)×100(%)として評価している(特許文献1、非特許文献1参照)。末端間距離比率計測法においては、毛髪が縮れた通常の状態で毛髪の先端から末端までの距離aと、当該毛髪を直線状に伸ばした状態で毛髪の先端から末端までの距離bとを測定し、毛髪の形状をa/bとして評価している(非特許文献1参照)。カール径計測法は、毛髪上の任意の点におけるカール径(曲率半径、曲率等)を計測し、毛髪の形状を評価している(非特許文献1参照)。   In the hair cross-section ratio measurement method, the minimum diameter a and the maximum diameter b in the hair cross section are measured from the viewpoint that the hair cross section is closer to a perfect circle, and the straight hair is measured. / B) × 100 (%) (see Patent Document 1 and Non-Patent Document 1). In the end-to-end distance ratio measurement method, the distance a from the tip to the end of the hair in a normal state where the hair is curled, and the distance b from the tip to the end of the hair in a state where the hair is linearly stretched are measured. The hair shape is evaluated as a / b (see Non-Patent Document 1). The curl diameter measurement method measures the curl diameter (curvature radius, curvature, etc.) at an arbitrary point on the hair and evaluates the shape of the hair (see Non-Patent Document 1).

特開2002−112834号公報JP 2002-111284 A D.Hrdy,Am.J.Phys.Anthrop.,39,p7,1973D. Hrdy, Am. J. et al. Phys. Anthrop. , 39, p7, 1973

しかしながら、従来の毛髪の形状を評価する方法には以下に示すような問題があった。毛髪断面比率計測法においては、計測する毛髪断面が毛髪軸に対して垂直でない場合には正確な真円率を求めることができず、また、真円率が100(%)に近くても曲がった毛髪が存在するため、この方法では毛髪の形状を正確に定量化できなかった。末端間距離比率計測法又はカール径計測法によって評価した毛髪の形状は、毛髪に変曲点がない場合や毛髪がある程度曲がっている場合等のように限られた状況下ではその形状を反映した正確な値を示すものの、毛髪が三次元的に複雑な形状を持っている場合には正確な値を示さず、人の毛髪を幅広く分類、評価するための基準にはなっていなかった。   However, conventional methods for evaluating the shape of hair have the following problems. In the hair cross-section ratio measurement method, when the cross-section of the hair to be measured is not perpendicular to the hair axis, it is not possible to obtain an accurate roundness, and even if the roundness is close to 100 (%), it is bent. In this method, the shape of the hair could not be accurately quantified. The shape of the hair evaluated by the end-to-end distance ratio measurement method or the curl diameter measurement method reflects the shape in a limited situation such as when the hair has no inflection point or when the hair is bent to some extent. Although it showed an accurate value, it did not show an accurate value when the hair had a three-dimensionally complicated shape, and it was not a standard for broadly classifying and evaluating human hair.

また、従来の毛髪の形状を評価する方法はいずれも、毛髪一本一本についてその形状を評価する方法であり、これらの方法を用いて個人としてのくせ毛度合いを評価することは、正確な基準がないため、できなかった。   In addition, any of the conventional methods for evaluating the shape of hair is a method for evaluating the shape of each individual hair, and it is an accurate criterion to evaluate the degree of individual hair using these methods. Because there was no, it was not possible.

従って、本発明の目的は、複雑で多様な人の毛髪の形状を客観的、定量的に数値化し、その形状を正確な基準として利用し得る、人の毛髪の形状評価方法、及び前記人の毛髪の形状評価方法に基づいて個人の固有のくせ毛度合いを数値化し、その値を正確な基準として利用し得る、人のくせ毛度合い評価方法を提供することにある。   Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to objectively and quantitatively quantify the shape of a complex and diverse human hair, and to use the shape as an accurate reference, and a human hair shape evaluation method, An object of the present invention is to provide a method for evaluating the degree of human hair that can digitize the individual's unique hair level based on the hair shape evaluation method and use the value as an accurate reference.

When drawing a normal vector of a plane formed by two tangent vectors, the value obtained based on the angle between adjacent tangent vectors, adjacent curvature vectors, or adjacent normal vectors is the hair It was found that this is a method that can objectively and quantitatively quantify the actual shape.

また本発明者等は、少なくとも、前髪部位及び側頭部位及び襟足部位を含む頭部所定部位から被験者の毛髪を採取し、前記人の毛髪の形状評価方法に従ってその形状を評価した場合、得られた値が、個人の固有のくせ毛度合いを実態に基づいて正確に表現し得る値であることを知見した。   Further, the present inventors obtained at least the subject's hair from a predetermined part of the head including the front hair part, the temporal part and the neck part, and evaluated the shape according to the human hair shape evaluation method. It was found that these values are values that can accurately represent an individual's inherent comb hair level based on actual conditions.

As shown in FIGS. 2 to 4, the method for evaluating the degree of human hair of the present embodiment includes a first step of collecting hair H from a predetermined part of the subject's head and a three-dimensional point cloud image of the shape of the hair H. A second step of obtaining a three-dimensional hair curve h based on the three-dimensional point cloud image, and a plurality of calculation points P determined at equal intervals on the three-dimensional hair curve h, (A) a tangent vector Vt tangent to the three-dimensional hair curve h on the calculation point P, (b) a curvature vector Vc tangent to the three-dimensional hair curve on the calculation point P, or (c) two tangent vectors adjacent to each other.

First, a hair shape measuring system that realizes such a method for evaluating the degree of human hair will be described with reference to FIG.

図1に示すように、本実施形態の毛髪形状測定システム1は、三次元デジタイザ2、デジタイザ本体装置3、解析装置4、温湿度計5、毛髪固定具6、除震板7、風防ケース8等からなる。三次元デジタイザ2及び解析装置4は、それぞれデジタイザ本体装置3に電気的に接続されている。デジタイザ本体装置3は、三次元デジタイザ2で取得した三次元点群画像を解析装置4に送信するように構成されている。解析装置4には、所定の解析プログラムを記録したメモリが内蔵されている。この解析装置4は、解析プログラムからの命令に従い、デジタイザ本体装置3から受信した三次元点群画像に基づいて、形状評価方法における所定のステップを実行するように構成されている(詳細は後述する)。   As shown in FIG. 1, the hair shape measurement system 1 of the present embodiment includes a three-dimensional digitizer 2, a digitizer body device 3, an analysis device 4, a temperature / humidity meter 5, a hair fixture 6, a vibration isolation plate 7, and a windshield case 8. Etc. The three-dimensional digitizer 2 and the analysis device 4 are each electrically connected to the digitizer main body device 3. The digitizer body device 3 is configured to transmit the three-dimensional point cloud image acquired by the three-dimensional digitizer 2 to the analysis device 4. The analysis device 4 has a built-in memory in which a predetermined analysis program is recorded. The analysis device 4 is configured to execute predetermined steps in the shape evaluation method based on the three-dimensional point cloud image received from the digitizer body device 3 in accordance with an instruction from the analysis program (details will be described later). ).

温湿度計5は、解析装置4に電気的に接続され、測定時の温湿度の情報を送信するようになっている。毛髪固定具6は、測定対象の毛髪Hを三次元デジタイザ2の測定可能域に支持するものである。除震板7は、三次元デジタイザ2の稼動によって発生する振動を減弱させ、毛髪固定具6に支持した毛髪Hが振動するのを防ぐためのものである。風防ケース8は、毛髪固定具6、三次元デジタイザ2等を覆い、風等の外環境の影響で毛髪固定具6に支持した毛髪Hが振動するのを防ぐためのものである。   The thermohygrometer 5 is electrically connected to the analysis device 4 and transmits temperature and humidity information at the time of measurement. The hair fixture 6 supports the hair H to be measured in the measurable area of the three-dimensional digitizer 2. The vibration isolation plate 7 is for reducing vibration generated by the operation of the three-dimensional digitizer 2 and preventing the hair H supported by the hair fixing tool 6 from vibrating. The windshield case 8 covers the hair fixing tool 6, the three-dimensional digitizer 2, and the like, and prevents the hair H supported on the hair fixing tool 6 from vibrating due to the influence of the outside environment such as wind.

次に、本実施形態の人のくせ毛度合い評価方法を述べる。第1ステップにおいては、図5(a)〜(c)に示すように、被験者の頭部所定部位から毛髪Hを採取する。頭部所定部位は、例えば、前髪部位、頭頂部位、側頭部位、後頭部位、襟足部位等が挙げられる。実態に基づく個人の固有のくせ毛度合いを顕著に表しているのは、前髪部位、側頭部位、及び襟足部位である。そのため、毛髪Hを採取する頭部所定部位は、少なくとも、前髪部位、側頭部位、及び襟足部位とを含むようにする。また、人のくせ毛度合いを官能評価に近い値にする観点から、頭部所定部位でも、特に、表面に露出している部位から毛髪Hを採取することが好ましい。採取する毛髪Hの数については特に制限はないが、個人の固有のくせ毛度合いを求めるためには、各頭部所定部位からそれぞれ1〜2000本、特に2〜100本とすることが好ましく、全体としては5〜10000本、特に10〜500本とすることが好ましい。   Next, the method for evaluating the human hair level according to this embodiment will be described. In the first step, as shown in FIGS. 5A to 5C, hair H is collected from a predetermined part of the head of the subject. Examples of the predetermined part of the head include a front hair part, a top part, a temporal part, a occipital part, and a neck part. It is the front hair part, the temporal part, and the neckline part that remarkably represent the individual's unique comb hair degree based on the actual situation. Therefore, the predetermined part of the head from which the hair H is collected includes at least a front hair part, a temporal part, and a neck part. Further, from the viewpoint of setting a person's comb hair level to a value close to sensory evaluation, it is preferable to collect hair H from a predetermined part of the head, particularly from a part exposed on the surface. There is no particular limitation on the number of hairs H to be collected, but in order to obtain an individual's inherent comb hair degree, it is preferable that the number is 1 to 2000, particularly 2 to 100, respectively, from a predetermined part of each head. 5 to 10,000, particularly 10 to 500 is preferable.

第4ステップにおいては、図4に示すように、三次元毛髪曲線hの毛根側の一端に始点の計算点P0をとり、任意の曲線距離q(例えば1mm)毎に、m個の計算点P1〜Pmを、三次元毛髪曲線hに沿って定める。計算点の数mは、三次元毛髪曲線hの長さと、計算点間の曲線距離qとによって決定される数である。そして次の操作(a)、(b)又は(c)を行う。   In the fourth step, as shown in FIG. 4, the calculation point P0 of the starting point is taken at one end on the hair root side of the three-dimensional hair curve h, and m calculation points P1 are taken every arbitrary curve distance q (for example, 1 mm). ~ Pm is defined along the three-dimensional hair curve h. The number m of calculation points is a number determined by the length of the three-dimensional hair curve h and the curve distance q between the calculation points.

Thereafter, in the same manner as described above, between the normal vectors (Vn1, Vn2), (Vn2, Vn3), (Vn3, Vn4),..., {Vn (m-2), Vn (m-1)} The angles θn2, θn3, θn4,..., Θn (m−1) are obtained sequentially. The angles θn1, θn2,..., Θn (m−1) between the vectors obtained here are absolute values from 0 ° to 180 °.

そして(a)においては、ベクトル間の角度θt1、θt2、…、θtm、点間距離q、計算点の数mを次の式(1)に代入して、毛髪の形状Fを、毛髪Hについて単位長さ当たりの変化角度として求める。ここで求められる毛髪の形状Fは、毛髪Hの曲がり度合いを表す指数である。
F=(θt1+θt2+…+θtm)/(q×m)・・・式(1)

このようにして求めた毛髪の形状Fは、三次元的な変化角度θを毛髪Hの単位長さあたりで平均化することにより、毛髪Hの形状を客観的、定量的に数値化した度合いである。また、このようにして求めた人のくせ毛度合いは、官能評価等によるくせ毛の程度の実態を正確に反映した値であって、例えば、毛髪研究の技術分野等において、毛髪の形状又は人のくせ毛度合いの実態を解析し、定義づけ、分類・評価を実施していく際に正確な基準となるものである。   The hair shape F thus obtained is the degree that the shape of the hair H is objectively and quantitatively quantified by averaging the three-dimensional change angle θ per unit length of the hair H. is there. In addition, the degree of human comb hair obtained in this way is a value that accurately reflects the actual state of the comb hair obtained by sensory evaluation, for example, in the technical field of hair research, etc. It is an accurate standard when analyzing the actual condition of the degree, defining it, and carrying out classification and evaluation.

例えば、毛髪研究の技術分野のうち、毛髪の形状に変化を与える物質の開発においては、物質の適用前の形状Fと、物質の適用後の形状Fとの数値を比較することによって、毛髪の形状に変化を与える効果的な物質等をスクリーニングするようにする。   For example, in the technical field of hair research, in the development of substances that change the shape of hair, by comparing the values of the shape F before application of the substance and the form F after application of the substance, Screen effective substances that change shape.

例えば、心理学研究の技術分野のうち、毛髪の形状やスタイリングの状態が心理に及ぼす効果を検討する場合等においては、毛髪の形状F又は人のくせ毛度合いを基準となる指標にしてその効果を評価していくようにする。   For example, in the technical field of psychological research, when examining the effect of hair shape or styling on psychology, the effect of the hair shape F or the human hair level is used as an index as a reference. Try to evaluate.

例えば、法医学研究の技術分野においては、客観的、定量的に数値化された毛髪の形状F又は人のくせ毛度合いを基準となる指標にして、個人の特定や分類、犯罪捜査等に応用していくようにする。   For example, in the technical field of forensic research, it can be applied to identification and classification of individuals, criminal investigations, etc. using objective and quantitatively quantified hair shape F or human hair level as a standard index. To go.

また例えば、人類学研究の技術分野のうち、毛髪Hの形状によって人類学上の特徴を評価し、分類する分野においては、アジア人、白人、黒人等の大雑把な分類によらず、客観的、定量的に数値化された毛髪の形状F又は人のくせ毛度合いを基準となる指標にして、より細分化した分類・評価をするようにする。   Also, for example, in the technical field of anthropological research, the anthropological characteristics are evaluated by the shape of the hair H, and in the field to classify, objective, regardless of rough classification such as Asian, white, black, etc. More detailed classification and evaluation are performed using quantitatively digitized hair shape F or human hair level as a reference index.

以上述べたように、本実施形態によれば、毛髪Hの形状Fについて、三次元的な変化角度θを毛髪Hの単位長さあたりで平均化することにより、人の毛髪Hの形状を客観的、定量的に数値化するようにし、さらに、被験者の頭部所定部位から毛髪Hを採取して前記毛髪の形状を測定し、個人の固有のくせ毛度合いを求めるようにしたため、毛髪研究、心理学研究、法医学研究、人類学研究等の技術分野等において、毛髪の形状F又は人のくせ毛度合いを正確な基準として利用することができる。   As described above, according to the present embodiment, the shape of the human hair H is objectively determined by averaging the three-dimensional change angle θ per unit length of the hair H with respect to the shape F of the hair H. In addition, the hair is sampled from a predetermined part of the subject's head, and the shape of the hair is measured to obtain the individual hair level. In technical fields such as academic research, forensic research, and anthropological research, the shape F of hair or the degree of human hair can be used as an accurate reference.

特に、本実施形態の場合、実際の毛髪形状を正確に再現した三次元毛髪曲線hに基づいて、毛髪Hの形状Fを三次元的な変化角度θで表したため、このような形状Fを利用することにより、2次元的な末端間距離比率計測法、カール径計測法等の評価方法を利用する場合と比べ、毛髪Hの実際の形状を三次元空間上の正確な尺度として表すことができる。   In particular, in the case of this embodiment, since the shape F of the hair H is represented by the three-dimensional change angle θ based on the three-dimensional hair curve h that accurately reproduces the actual hair shape, such a shape F is used. By doing so, the actual shape of the hair H can be expressed as an accurate measure in a three-dimensional space, compared to the case where an evaluation method such as a two-dimensional end-to-end distance ratio measurement method or a curl diameter measurement method is used. .

また、本実施形態によれば、毛髪を採取する対象箇所を頭部所定部位として特定したため、頭部所定部位ごとに毛髪の形状Fを求めることができ、その結果、頭部所定部位ごとにくせ毛度合いについて正確な基準を得ることができる。   In addition, according to the present embodiment, since the target portion from which the hair is to be collected is specified as the predetermined head portion, the hair shape F can be obtained for each predetermined head portion, and as a result, the comb hair for each predetermined head portion. An accurate reference can be obtained for the degree.

本発明は、前記実施形態に限られることなく、種々の変更等を行うことができる。例えば、人の毛髪の形状Fは、互いに隣り合うベクトルVの間の角度θに基づいて求められるのであれば、前記式(1)〜(3)に限られることなく、例えば、次の式(4)、(5)、(6)等に従って求められてもよい。
F=(1/m−1){(θt1−Θt)2+(θt2−Θt)2+…+(θtm−Θt)2}・・・式(4)
F=(1/m−1){(θc1−Θc)2+(θc2−Θc)2+…+(θcm−Θc)2}・・・式(5)
F=(1/m−2)〔(θn1−Θn)2+(θn2−Θn)2+…+{θn(m−1)−Θn}2〕・・・式(6)
(ただし、Θt、Θc、Θnは、互いに隣り合うベクトルV間の角度θの平均値を表す。)
The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, and various changes can be made. For example, if the shape F of the human hair is obtained based on the angle θ between the vectors V adjacent to each other, it is not limited to the above formulas (1) to (3). It may be determined according to 4), (5), (6) or the like.
F = (1 / m−1) {(θt1−Θt) 2 + (θt2−Θt) 2 +... + (Θtm−Θt) 2 } Equation (4)
F = (1 / m-1 ) {(θc1-Θc) 2 + (θc2-Θc) 2 + ... + (θcm-Θc) 2} ··· Equation (5)
F = (1 / m−2) [(θn1−Θn) 2 + (θn2−Θn) 2 +... + {Θn (m−1) −Θn} 2 ] (6)
(However, Θt, Θc, and Θn represent the average value of the angles θ between the vectors V adjacent to each other.)

Example 3
[1] Simulation Evaluation The hair shape evaluation method A of the present embodiment was compared and evaluated by the conventional end-to-end distance ratio measurement method B and the conventional minimum curl diameter measurement method C by simulation analysis. As described above, the end-to-end distance ratio measurement method B includes the distance a from the tip of the hair to the end in a normal state where the hair is curled, and the distance from the tip of the hair to the end in a state where the hair is linearly stretched. This is a method of measuring the distance b and obtaining the hair shape as a / b. The minimum curl diameter measuring method is a method for obtaining the hair shape as the minimum curl diameter by comparing the hair with a curvature radius chart.

〔2〕シミュレーション評価方法
平面座標上に一定の曲率半径r(0.1cm、0.2cm、・・・、1cm、2cm、・・・、∞cm)を持つ円弧を複数個連結した擬似毛髪曲線を複数作成し、この擬似毛髪曲線について、本実施形態の毛髪の形状評価方法Aでは、毛髪の形状Fを式(1)に従って求めた。末端間距離比率計測法Bでは末端間距離比率を求め、最小カール径計測法Cでは最小カール径を求めた。
[2] Simulation evaluation method A pseudo hair curve in which a plurality of arcs having a constant radius of curvature r (0.1 cm, 0.2 cm,..., 1 cm, 2 cm,. In the hair shape evaluation method A of the present embodiment, the hair shape F was determined from the pseudo hair curve according to the equation (1). In the end-to-end distance ratio measurement method B, the end-to-end distance ratio was determined, and in the minimum curl diameter measurement method C, the minimum curl diameter was determined.

〔3〕シミュレーション評価結果
シミュレーション評価の解析結果、以下の(1)〜(3)が明らかになった。
(1)末端間距離比率計測法Bで求めた末端間距離比率は、変曲点のない擬似毛髪曲線に対しては形状評価方法Aで求めた毛髪の形状Fと相関するが(図7)、変曲点のある擬似毛髪曲線に対しては、形状評価方法Aで求めた毛髪の形状Fよりも過小な結果を示す(図8)。
(2)人の毛髪はくせ毛の程度に従って、「直毛」、「ほぼ直毛(弱いウエーブ毛)」、「ウエーブ毛」、「カール毛(強いウエーブ毛)」、「縮毛」に大別されるが、「縮毛」及び「カール毛(強いウエーブ毛)」は変曲点を有する毛髪で構成されることが多い。従って、変曲点を有する毛髪はくせ毛の程度が大きいと判断されるべきであり、末端間距離比率計測法Bで求めた末端間距離比率では正確な評価ができない。
(3)最小カール径計測法Cで求めた最小カール径は、擬似毛髪曲線に対して正確な評価ができない(図9)。
[3] Simulation evaluation results The following (1) to (3) were clarified as an analysis result of the simulation evaluation.
(1) The end-to-end distance ratio obtained by the end-to-end distance ratio measuring method B correlates with the hair shape F obtained by the shape evaluation method A for a pseudo hair curve having no inflection point (FIG. 7). For a pseudo hair curve having an inflection point, a result smaller than the hair shape F obtained by the shape evaluation method A is shown (FIG. 8).
(2) Human hair is roughly divided into “straight hair”, “almost straight hair (weak wave hair)”, “wave hair”, “curl hair (strong wave hair)”, and “curly hair” according to the degree of comb hair. However, “curly hair” and “curled hair (strong wave hair)” are often composed of hair having an inflection point. Therefore, it should be judged that the hair having an inflection point has a large degree of comb hair, and the end-to-end distance ratio obtained by the end-to-end distance ratio measuring method B cannot be accurately evaluated.
(3) The minimum curl diameter obtained by the minimum curl diameter measuring method C cannot be accurately evaluated with respect to the pseudo hair curve (FIG. 9).

以上述べた点から、本実施形態の毛髪の形状評価方法Aは、従来の末端間距離比率計測法B又は従来の最小カール径計測法Cと比較して、実態に即した毛髪形状の数値化に適していることが明らかになった。   From the above-mentioned points, the hair shape evaluation method A of the present embodiment is quantified in accordance with the actual situation compared to the conventional end-to-end distance ratio measurement method B or the conventional minimum curl diameter measurement method C. It became clear that it was suitable for.
