Abstract
A method for classifying textile samples and unknown fabrics into known categories using spectroscopy, chemometric modeling, and soft independent modeling of class analogies ('SIMCA'). The method involves collecting spectral data, preferably diffuse near infrared reflectance data, for a library of known fabric samples, creating a database of principal component analyses for each type of fabric, and using SIMCA to classify an unknown fabric sample according to the database.
