Evaluating Objective and Subjective Assessment of Fabric Pilling

摘要

Over the years, numerous methods have been proposed to assess the degree of textile fabric pilling. The traditional subjective assessment method is by far the most widely-used method in industry, however it suffers from inconsistency. For this reason, several objective methods were proposed to overcome the challenge. One of the recent objective methods uses an imaging system based on a digital camera. Its performance was evaluated and compared to the subjective method presented in this paper.
