In this work, the extraction of significant features of Persian carpet patterns was studied. Four aesthetic related features were extracted for a collection of Persian carpet images. To this purpose, a set of 134 color images of three different categories of traditional Persian designs, named “Afshan,” “Lachak Toranj,” and “Torkaman” were collected. At first, the PHOG (Pyramid of Histogram of Orientation Gradients) measure was derived for all patterns to calculate complexity, anisotropy, self‐similarity, and Birkhoff‐like features. Based on the results, anisotropy and Birkhoff‐like features significantly categorize three carpet designs. According to the results, the combination of anisotropy and Birkhoff‐like features increases the accuracy of classification of samples to 97%. 相似文献
Today, scanners are often promoted for color measurement applications. With a color scanner, it is possible, to some extent, to measure the color of objects if they are properly calibrated and characterized. The object of the present work is to study concentration estimation in single-component dyeing systems using a scanner. A new method is presented based on Cohen and Kappauf and single-constant Kubelka–Munk theories. The results showed a nonlinear transformation of the fundamental color stimulus that benefits from a good scalability could be applied for the aims of this study in specified illumination and viewing conditions with an adequate error range. 相似文献
A new quantitative unlevelness index based on the Fourier transformation frequency component is introduced for evaluation of the degree of unlevelness of a set of dyed fabrics with different surface colour uniformities. A series of dyed denims with different degrees of unlevelness were prepared, and the degree of uneven appearance of fabrics was ranked by a group of observers. The surfaces of fabrics were imaged by a conventional scanner, and the Fourier transform was employed to compute the spectrum of desired images. It was found that the low‐frequency components of the computed matrix were stronger than the others, while its DC component, which related to the mean of the desired image, was too large. By this method, it was demonstrated that the fraction of the sum of the maximum of the second to sixth columns of the Fourier components of the captured image to the maximum of the first column component varied with the degree of unlevelness of the desired surfaces. The performance of the method was compared with five spectral and image based instrumental levelness–unlevelness indices, as well as those reported by visual ranking. Based on the results, the Fourier transformation method and the singular value decomposition technique show the best agreement with visual evaluation results, but the singular value decomposition method requires a longer computation time. 相似文献
