摘要

Matrix singular value decomposition technique is employed for the detection of defects in fabrics. Firstly, a region of interest (ROI) containing the defect is identified by a proposed adaptive partitioning technique thus reducing the computational duty of operating over the whole image. The ROI portion of fabric image is then divided into small nonoverlapping subimages to further reduce the computational complexity and the average singular values of the subimages are calculated. To remove the interlaced warpweft grating structure from ROI, which is the global information in the fabric image, selected singular values associated with positive average singular numbers are rejected and the fabric image is reconstructed to yield the image of the defect. Since the resulting image is saturated with noise and some unconnected parts mainly due to dissimilarity of the subimage of the fabric structure, postprocessing is carried out by binarization and edge detection to yield the edge map of the defect. Validity and feasibility of the proposed approach is established for detection of defects form images of TILDA database. The detection rate of 95% and detection success rate of 94.1% are achieved when tested over 460 samples.
