Abstract

In textile industry production, fabric defect inspection is a very important step to ensure the quality of fabric. At present, most of the methods can detect the defects for solid color with the distinguishable defects, but they are not very efficient for small defects, especially for the defects which has small difference with the background. In this paper, we propose a three-phase method, mean filter, convolution operator combined with variance (MCV), for fabric defect detection. For a fabric image, we first use mean filter to suppress noise, then convolution operator is applied to enhance image. Based on enhanced image, we divide it into many patches. For a given patch, we calculate its variance and then use the threshoding to decide whether the patch is free defect or not. Finally, a defect image will be synthesized from these processed patches. Experimental results prove the effectiveness of the proposed MCV algorithm.
