This study presents an innovative approach for modernizing the garment industry through the fusion of digital human modeling (DHM), virtual modeling for fit sizing, ergonomic body-size data, and e-library resources. The integration of these elements empowers manufacturers to revolutionize their clothing design and production methods, leading to the delivery of unparalleled fit, comfort, and personalization for a wide range of body shapes and sizes. DHM, known for its precision in representing human bodies virtually and integrating anthropometric data, including ergonomic measurements, enhances the shopping experience by providing valuable insights. Consumers gain access to the knowledge necessary for making tailored clothing choices, thereby enhancing the personalization and satisfaction of their shopping experience. The incorporation of e-library resources takes the garment design approach to a data-driven and customer-centric level. Manufacturers can draw upon a wealth of information regarding body-size diversity, fashion trends, and customer preferences, all sourced from e-libraries. This knowledge supports the creation of a diverse range of sizes and styles, promoting inclusivity and relevance. Beyond improving garment fit, this comprehensive integration streamlines design and production processes by reducing the reliance on physical prototypes. This not only enhances efficiency but also contributes to environmental responsibility, fostering a more sustainable and eco-friendly future for the garment industry and embracing the future of fashion, where technology and data converge to create clothing that authentically fits, resonates with consumers, and aligns with the principles of sustainability. This study developed the mobile application integrating with the information in cloud database in order to present the best-suited garment for the user.

The cornerstone of textile manufacturing lies in quality control, with the early detection of defects being crucial to ensuring product quality and sustaining a competitive edge. Traditional inspection methods, which predominantly depend on manual processes, are limited by human error and scalability challenges. Recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI)—encompassing computer vision, image processing, and machine learning—have transformed defect detection, delivering improved accuracy, speed, and reliability. This article critically examines the evolution of defect detection methods in the textile industry, transitioning from traditional manual inspections to AI-driven automated systems. It delves into the types of defects occurring at various production stages, assesses the strengths and weaknesses of conventional and automated approaches, and underscores the pivotal role of deep learning models, especially Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), in achieving high precision in defect identification. Additionally, the integration of cutting-edge technologies, such as high-resolution cameras and real-time monitoring systems, into quality control processes is explored, highlighting their contributions to sustainability and cost-effectiveness. By addressing the challenges and opportunities these advancements present, this study serves as a comprehensive resource for researchers and industry professionals seeking to harness AI in optimizing textile production and quality assurance amidst the ongoing digital transformation.

This research presents an approach aimed at enhancing texture recognition and weaving parameter estimation in the textile industry to align with sustainability goals and improve product quality. By utilizing low-cost handheld microscopy and machine learning, this method offers the potential for more precise production outcomes. In this study, textile images were manually labeled for texture, specific mass, weft, and warp parameters, followed by the extraction of various texture features, resulting in a comprehensive dataset comprising four hundred and fifty-eight inputs and four outputs. Prominent machine learning algorithms, including XGBoost, RF, and MLP, were applied, resulting in noteworthy achievements. Specifically, XGBoost demonstrated an impressive texture classification accuracy of 0.987, while RF yielded the lowest MAE (5.121 g/cm) in specific mass prediction. Additionally, weft and warp estimations displayed superior accuracy compared to manual measurements. This research emphasizes the crucial role of AI in improving efficiency and sustainability within the textile industry, potentially reducing resource wastage, enhancing worker safety, and increasing productivity. These advancements hold the promise of significant positive environmental and social impacts, marking a substantial step forward in the industry’s pursuit of its objectives.

Skin tumors, especially melanoma, which is highly aggressive and progresses quickly to other sites, are an issue in various parts of the world. Nevertheless, the one and only way to save lives is to detect it at its initial stages. This study explores the application of advanced deep learning models for classifying benign and malignant melanoma using dermoscopic images. The aim of the study is to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of melanoma diagnosis with the ConvNeXt, Vision Transformer (ViT) Base-16, and Swin Transformer V2 Small (Swin V2 S) deep learning models. The ConvNeXt model, which integrates principles of both convolutional neural networks and transformers, demonstrated superior performance, with balanced precision and recall metrics. The dataset, sourced from Kaggle, comprises 13,900 uniformly sized images, preprocessed to standardize the inputs for the models. Experimental results revealed that ConvNeXt achieved the highest diagnostic accuracy among the tested models. Experimental results revealed that ConvNeXt achieved an accuracy of 91.5%, with balanced precision and recall rates of 90.45% and 92.8% for benign cases, and 92.61% and 90.2% for malignant cases, respectively. The F1-scores for ConvNeXt were 91.61% for benign cases and 91.39% for malignant cases. This research points out the potential of hybrid deep learning architectures in medical image analysis, particularly for early melanoma detection.
