DETERMINING THE WOVEN FABRIC DEFECTS BY IMPLEMENTING IMAGE COMPARISON METHODS

Various fabric defects may occur over the surface structure during the production or use of the woven fabrics. detection of the defects over the surface of the fabric is one of the most important factors for assessing the quality of the fabric. fault detection is generally made by the human eye and the inspection of the fabric is a very laborious operation. in order to simplify this operation, the computer-assisted image processing methods may be used. in such methods, fabric image is electronically captured by appropriate camera systems which provides a faster comparison and also eliminates the human perceptive biases. in this study, solid-colored woven fabrics were subjected to the several image processing methods in order to detect certain fabric defects.
