Textile pilling grade
Predict an ISO pilling grade from a fabric image, with density and the features behind the call.
Example outputs shown for illustration. Numbers depend on your samples and protocol.
The measurement, today
Pilling assessment compares an abraded swatch to reference photographs by eye. Grades drift between assessors and labs, and the rationale is never recorded.
From image to reviewed result
- 1
Upload the swatch
Drop a flatbed scan or macro photo of the abraded fabric. No fixed rig required.
- 2
Detect pills
A segmentation pass finds and outlines individual pills, separating them from weave texture and lint.
- 3
Grade to ISO
An EfficientNet-B0 classifier predicts the modified-Martindale grade, with pilling density per cm² alongside.
- 4
Explain the call
Grad-CAM highlights the regions that drove the grade; SHAP gives per-feature and per-stage contributions.
- 5
Review & log
Accept or adjust before the result is logged with the image, grade, density, and attribution attached.
What you export
Scope: Assists pilling assessment and QC review. It does not replace a certified human final grade unless validated for your fabrics.
