Set marks in fabrics can be classified by human visual inspection. An objective way . of measuring set marks is by means of image analysis. Correlation of the output of the image analysis and the visual assessment of the set mark is not clear. Therefore, neural nets are used to find the relationships between the visibility of set marks and the image analysis, taking into account construction parameters of weft yarn and fabric.
