The work addresses fundamental issues in selecting drivers and learners for the conventional DTBO, which substantially impact the algorithm's accuracy and convergence speed. Two significant improvements are proposed: including the crowding distance technique for more diverse driver and learner selection and incorporating the Levy Flight distribution for better exploration and local optima avoidance. The IDTBO's performance is evaluated using twelve benchmark functions, including unimodal and high-dimensional multimodal optimization functions. The results indicate that IDTBO performs exceptionally well, with more extraordinary exploitation ability on unimodal functions and consistent achievement of the global optima. The proposed IDTBO demonstrated exceptional exploration capabilities on high-dimensional multimodal functions and performed competitively with other algorithms in the literature. From six functions, the IDTBO obtained zero optimal values. Again, the rate of convergence analysis demonstrates that IDTBO finds optimal solutions in fewer iterations, demonstrating its capacity to balance exploration and exploitation. To assess the strength of the IDTBO in solving real-world problems, the improved DTBO is further tested on two practical benchmark engineering problems. The IDTBO again produced a competitive performance against other algorithms in the literature. The study shows that IDTBO is a valuable metaheuristic algorithm that can tackle various real-world optimization problems.","PeriodicalId":495542,"journal":{"name":"Research Reports on Computer Science","volume":" 11","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141001175","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Automated classification of the fabric defects is a vital step during the fabric manufacturing process in order to prevent any faulted fabric from being supplied to the market. The defects on the surface of the fabric were manually identified by the individuals but this poses problems in terms of human-error and is also time-consuming. Efforts have been made to achieve better precision in defect detection through image processing studies, leading to the development of automated systems. In this study, some high-performing deep learning models are applied including ResNet and VGG-16 and illustrated how these algorithms can be used in the domain of textile manufacturing for fabric defect detection. A combination of images are used ranging from patterned and textured to plain for better defects recognition on any given fabric. The algorithm VGG-16 has displayed 73.91% accuracy while the ResNet algorithm has shown 67.59% accuracy.","PeriodicalId":495542,"journal":{"name":"Research Reports on Computer Science","volume":"21 1‐3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140224504","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
