Abstract— Choosing clothes with appropriate color and pattern is very challenging for amaurotic people. Amaurotic people are those who have partial sight due to medical reasons or lost their sight in an injury. Although, there are some automatic system for identifying clothes and patterns, still it is challenging by reason of large intraclass pattern variation. To accord with such obstacles, a Computerized Clothing and Color Recognition system is introduced. The proposed system consists of 3 components a camera, data analysis unit and speaker. The camera captures the user’s cloth, data analysis unit will identify the complex pattern and finally the results are described to amaurotic people verbally. This system is capable of recognizing 4 major …show more content…
Normally sighted people use as the basis of number of everyday tasks such as matching socks, choosing between different clothes and etc. Choosing clothes with suitable colors and patterns is a challenging for amaurotic people. They manage this task with the help from family members, using plastic brakkine labels. To overcome such problems an automatic or computerized cloth pattern recognition system for amaurotic people as been designed. This is energetic task due to many clothing pattern and color designs as well as corresponding large intraclass variations. Existing approaches mainly focus on textures with large changes in view point, orientation, and scaling but less intraclass pattern and intensity variations. In the proposed system, a camera-based system analysis method is used to help amaurotic people for recognizing clothing patterns and colors. The system contains the following major components(Fig. 1) 1) a camera for capturing clothing images, a micro phone for speech command input and speakers (or Bluetooth, earphone) for audio output; 2) data capture and analysis unit to perform command control, clothing pattern recognition, and color identification by using a computer which can be a desktop in a user’s bedroom or a wearable computer (e.g., a mini-computer or a smart phone); and 3) audio outputs system to provide recognition results of clothing patterns and colors, as well as system …show more content…
Radon transform is employed for estimating the orientation of texture patterns and Histogram equalization is performed to decrease illumination changes. For each wavelet sub images, cooccurrence matrix for gray texture analysis is calculated. Finally, the texture matching is performed based on statistical classification which includes six features namely mean, variance, smoothness, energy, homogeneity, and entropy. However, this system is not able to automatically recognize clothing patterns. In all these works [2][3][4][5][6][7], the needs of blind people were considered. Existing system [5][6][7] focus on large change in viewpoint, orientation and scaling , but less with intraclass and intensity variations. The proposed system has been designed to identify the clothing pattern that has larger intraclass and intensity variations. III. PROPOSED WORK The proposed work is for developing an assistive system which automatically recognizes the color and cloth pattern for amaurotic people. A portable camera can be mounted upon a pair of glass to capture the cloth pattern. These images are applied through the input of wearable computer. Data
In our algorithm, we have already taken a good quality of image. 3) Binarize To binarize the image the ridges are denotted by black and furrow are denotted by the white.
After, the color space transformation we are going to extracts the texture vector from that image using sparse texture model. The texture vectors are represented as a set of distributions which is used to cluster the texture data using K-means clustering algorithm. Finding the number of clusters which consists set of texture distributions used to calculate TD metric. After, calculating the TD metric, the image is over segmented using SRM algorithm, which results the image being divided into large number of regions. Next, each region is independently classified as representing normal skin or lesion based on the textural contents of that region.

In the article, “What You’ll Do Next”, written by David Brooks. The writer talks about how data is collected and the different ways it is used now in the world. He also starts to talk about his main purpose of this article and tells us that people now are using data collected to predict human behavior. Brooks believes that although data is useful, it’s not useful for human behavior. That he also believes people shouldn’t let data tell them what personal decisions to make.
In the article, “Should Tech Companies Pay Us for Our Data?” Andreas Weigend questions if companies should pay us for our data. Weigend’s purpose is to inform and explain to the audience that companies are making billions of dollars from using our data. He expresses that data is very valuable by telling us that companies treat data as an asset and data is often used for decision-making. Weigend uses stylistic techniques, establishes credibility, and provides an article that his audience can understand to create an effective and informative argument for the audience.
Wearables are articles of clothing that are equipped with computer technology. As stated before, this allows users to connect to the internet. This is essential for communicating with each other. Smart contacts also exist, and are necessary in order to be able to see these virtually simulated interfaces. Instead of seeing information on a screen, information appears holographically in the air.
Fundamentals of Fashion And Their Reflection In “The Next Black” Aaliya Gujral Unquestionably clothes are a prominent part of our lives. They help us express who we are and often represent our sex, occupation, age and social standing. Clothing has been used by humans for thousands of years, and comes in a variety of forms. It has evolved throughout the course of history to include more fabrics, patterns, styles and designs.
1.Identify the problem being addressed and is it a new problem or a well known problem? There are a variety of wearable sensors like location beacons, accelerometers, cameras, and physiological sensors. But then, there is a need to develop a single device that can monitor a wealth of activities. Secondly, there is a need to develop tools and techniques for continuously sensing user activities of interest, in order to develop a variety of truly ubiquitous computing applications.
Many people in the company need access to data to help them do their job better. The main questions revolve around who needs what data, and who chooses what data gets to be shared. Looking at all the pieces, as well as the IT and information assets, the governance of the data belongs to a data owner (Khatri & Brown, 2010). The main questions to be answered must include who is the data owner? Who is responsible for data quality?
This was the medium constant development of high quality apparel, with attributes of customers’ feedback, to refine the clothing standard. 4.1.2 Product
Many decision-making problems, for instance, clothing design, pattern cutting, production arrangement, trends and sales prediction, and supply chain management, needed to be tackled. Those problem may be intractable and can be solved by different artificial intelligence approaches such as genetic algorithms, fuzzy logic and expert system. Among various artificial intelligence applications, this report is going to discuss an application of interactive genetic algorithm which is related to apparel design. The original way
In order to explicitly analysis the clothing industry, emphasis must be laid on Textile
Accessibility is a concept that essentially applies to the customization of products, services, appliances and environments in a way that enables them to be used by people who have various types of disabilities. Effectively speaking, these products and services are designed in such a manner that enables people with special needs to gain both ‘direct’ as well as ‘indirect’ access to them. At the same time, the benefits of accessibility also extend to a wider category of individuals such as senior citizens and medical patients. Assistive technology is a term that is closely associated with the concept of accessibility. For instance, the application of assistive technology is what makes electronic equipment such as computer screen readers accessible to all categories of end users, including those with disabilities or special needs.
Big Data There are many different definitions for Big Data. SAS (n.d.) an analytical software company describes it as, “a popular term used to describe the exponential growth and availability of data, both structured and unstructured.” Many think Big Data just came into existence but it has been around for years. Banks, retail, advertisers have been using big data for marketing purposes.
This is also helpful to develop fashion-oriented products, which have a shorter time to
