Abstract:In this study, the authors use linear and nonlinear models and yarn parameters such as CV%, hairiness, and surface softness to classify the softness of knitted fabrics (T-shirts) for comparison to human subjective evaluations. All classification rates are verified with a leave-one-out cross-validation technique. The results show 20% misclassification when using a linear model to sort samples into two classes (low and high). When sorting into three classes, the misclassification is 30%. When sorting T-shirt sof… Show more
