One of the key elements in successfully utilizing a textile color matching and quality control system is the accurate and repeatable measurement of the samples being evaluated. Poor technique in sample measurement will greatly diminish the accuracy of the formulas produced by the shade matching software and will provide misleading results from the quality control software. Mistakes in either ar...

In computer vision, measurement of image properties such as color or texture is essential. In this paper, we propose a solid framework for the local measurement of texture in color images. We give a physical basis for the integration of the well-known Gabor filters with the measurement of color. Our method implies that the color–texture is measured in the wavelength-Fourier domain. The measurem...
