Study of color feature analysis and texture estimation for different cloths materials on various environments of data acquisition

Abstract

Accurately acquiring information of product color is very important in quality control produces. Like in color scheme of industrial products and chemical inspection using colors, a method of visually comparing and measuring between object and standard color chart is generally used. However, it has some problems that need cost and labors. In online shopping, which has been increasing in recent years, the colors of purchased products is often different than those expected due to the difference of light-source color. For the purpose of eliminating the gap felt by consumers, a pixel value correction method that reduces the influence of ambient light and analyzes the color characteristics of the object is suggested for image acquired using smartphone and tablet PC. In this paper, we conducted a study of color feature analysis and material estimation using image features for three types of cloths made by different materials.
