Title: Comparative Study between Texture Feature and Local Feature Descriptors for Silk Fabric Pattern Image Recognition
Abstract: Thai silk fabrics have unique patterns in different regions of Thailand. The designers may have been inspired and took ideas from the natural environment to create new silk patterns. Hence, many new silk patterns are modified from the original silk pattern. It is challenging for people to recognize a pattern without any prior knowledge and expertise. This paper aims to present a comparative study between texture feature and local feature descriptor for silk pattern image recognition. First, two feature extraction techniques: texture feature and local feature descriptors are proposed to create robustness features from sub-regions that are divided by the grid-based method. Second, the robust features are then classified using the well-known and effective classifier algorithms: K-nearest neighbor (KNN) and support vector machine (SVM) with the radial basis function. We experimented with silk pattern image recognition on two silk fabric pattern image datasets: the Silk-Pattern and Silk-Diff-Pattern. The evaluation results show that the texture feature called the local binary pattern (LBP) when combined with the KNN and SVM algorithms outperforms other feature extraction methods, even deep learning architectures.
