This paper describes the application of digital image processing to the grading of fabric wrinkle recovery. Degrees of fabric wrinkling of AATCC replicate standards are analyzed using a combination of texture and profile analysis techniques. Results in dicate that wrinkling can be reliably measured using gray level and surface statistics, co-occurrence analysis, and power spectral density of image profiles.
