Abstract

An approach for applying a structural texture analysis method to automatic visual inspection of fabric samples in the textile industry is presented.

The main steps (image preprocessing, image segmentation, model description and matching) to accomplish this task are described and also some conclusions are drawn from the preliminary experiments.
