Adaptive neuro-fuzzy system for quantitative evaluation of woven fabrics' pilling resistance
نویسندگان
چکیده
Fabric pilling is considered a performance and aesthetic property of the woven products that determine its quality. The subjective evaluation of the fabric pilling results in misleading values that depend on the measurement standard even for the same sample. This work utilizes some textural features extracted from the fabric’s images to obtain better representative and quantitative values of the fabric’s surface. An algorithm for creating features dataset for training and testing the soft-computing classifier was described where random noise was added to the limited number of fabric’s pilling standard images. The objective pilling classification of the fabric samples was performed using an adaptive neuro-fuzzy system (ANFIS) which showed an ability to classify the noised standard images with a correct classification rate of 85.8%. The ANFIS was also able to classify actual fabric samples with a Spearman’s coefficient of rank correlation at +0.985 when compared with the classification grades of the human operators. Results showed high efficiency of the system that is independent on the different fabric structure or color which suggests its availability to replace the currently applied subjective pilling evaluation. 2014 Elsevier Ltd.

Objective Assessment of Pilling of Nonwoven Fabrics Using the Two Dimensional Discrete Wavelet Transform
Fabric pilling is a serious problem for the apparel industry, causing an unsightly appearance and premature wear. Woolen products are particularly prone to pilling. Recently, a process for production of woolen nonwoven apparel fabrics has been commercialized in Australia, and may lead to new markets for Australian wool. However, the success of such nonwoven fabrics will partly rely on their pro...
متن کاملPrediction of toxicity of aliphatic carboxylic acids using adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system
Toxicity of 38 aliphatic carboxylic acids was studied using non-linear quantitative structure-toxicityrelationship (QSTR) models. The adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) was used to construct thenonlinear QSTR models in all stages of study. Two ANFIS models were developed based upon differentsubsets of descriptors. The first one used log ow K and LUMO E as inputs and had good predicti...
