Pw. Chen et al., CLASSIFYING TEXTILE FAULTS WITH A BACKPROPAGATION NEURAL-NETWORK USING POWER SPECTRA, Textile research journal, 68(2), 1998, pp. 121-126
A real-time system designed to detect and classify textile defects is
presented. The system starts with an analysis of the optical Fourier t
ransform of sample textiles. We also use a back-propagation neural net
work to help detect and classify defects. Experimental results show th
at the system is able to detect and classify nine out of the twelve ki
nds of defects in its data base.
