Abstract

The layout of colored yarns in yarn-dyed fabrics is a significant part of designing and production in the textile industry, which is still analyzed manually at present. Existing methods based on image processing have some limitations in accuracy and stability. Therefore, an automatic method is proposed to recognize the layout of colored yarns and some other basic fabric structure parameters: the fabric density and weave pattern. First, a large dataset with fabric structure parameters is constructed. The fabric images are captured by a wireless portable device. Then the yarns and floats are accurately located using a novel multi-task and multi-scale convolutional neural network. Finally, a density-based color clustering algorithm is proposed to recognize the layout of colored yarns. The results of extensive experiments show that the proposed method can automatically identify the basic structure parameters with high effectiveness and robustness.
