Application of Wavelet Transform and TOPSIS for Recognizing Fabric Texture

Abstract:

Fabric quality detection and classification plays a very important role for the automatic detection in fabrics. Using wavelet transform, this study intends to analyze the fabric image and work out the type feature of fabric texture; and then through Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS), the study tries to distinguish and classify the texture of fabrics, mainly of knited fabric, printed fabric, stain fabric and plain weave fabric. The approach of TOPSIS is applied in analyzing the correlation among random factor sequence of feature indexes after some data processing, and determining its texture type of the designated fabric on the basis of the highest correlative degree. Experiment findings show that the automatic recognizing system of fabric types discussed in this study is capable of recognizing four different textile images.
