Abstract
In business settings, casual wear has become more common under the influence of COOL BIZ. There have been few reported studies on mitigation technology and methods for quantifying wrinkles in easy-to-wrinkle fabrics. Therefore, in this study, we investigated a method of predicting a wrinkle grade of cotton slacks. Image processing and texture analysis were performed on images of wrinkles, and the features of wrinkles were extracted. The method for predicting wrinkle grade from the features appearing in wrinkle images was derived on the basis of multiple regression analysis. As the result, the difference variance (DVAR) of wrinkle image was adopted as an explanatory variable.
