Abstract:Although the conventional image processing methods can detect fabric defects, fabric defect detection is an open research problem due to the diversity of defect types. In this paper, the feasibility of VGG16 deep learning architecture for fabric defect detection has been demonstrated. A new fabric defect database is used. The pre-trained model of VGG16 architecture on the new database is built. Thus, the training time of the model is reduced. The experimental results show that the VGG16 model outperforms the t… Show more
“…Recently, deep learning-based defect detection models have been developed. Vgg16 deep learning model was used to detect circular knitting fabric defects [17]. The proposed method produced better results than shearlet transform and GLCM methods.…”
Fabric defects cause both labor and raw material losses and energy costs. These undesirable situations negatively affect the competitiveness of companies in the textile sector. Traditionally, human-oriented quality control also has important limitations such as lack of attention and fatigue. Robust and efficient defect detection systems can be developed with image processing and artificial intelligence methods. This study proposes a deep learning-based method to detect and classify common fabric defects in circular knitting fabrics. The proposed method adds a fine-tuned mechanism to the MobileNetV2 deep learning model. The added fine-tuned mechanism is optimized to classify fabric defects. The proposed model has been tested on a fabric dataset containing circular knitting fabric defects. Obtained results showed that the proposed method produced desired results in fabric defect detection and classification.
