Abstract
In order to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of color difference detection for dyed fabrics, this article introduces a novel superpixel‐based color difference detection algorithm, which exhibits three significant improvements over the previous algorithm. First, it proposes a more rational color feature extraction method to extract more detailed color features from fabric images, which uses superpixels as basic units for both color feature extraction and color difference detection. Second, the algorithm employs the CIEDE2000 color difference formula to calculate color difference values. This eliminates the need for obtaining standard fabric images as references in advance, making the process more convenient and practical. Finally, an area‐based color difference calculation method is proposed based on the human visual mechanism, ensuring that the evaluation results are more consistent with human eye observations. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm provides more accurate and visually consistent color difference assessments compared to the previous algorithm.
