The project consists in develop a tool that make a classification of latex
gloves taking into account the different features that make the difference
between them using a Matlab code in machine learning.
This project has the purpose to have a tool that classify those gloves in
order to know in which market of the world they could be sold and at
what price. So as to achieve this purpose, it is necessary to collect the data
and prepare them to introduce in the code.
The project can be divided in three different parts; the first one is to make
a research of all the theory about latex gloves, achieve the basic
fundamentals with the program Matlab and the theory about image
processing and machine learning. After that, I will collect the 125 data
and the features to take into account are if the gloves have black spots and
if they are yellow or white colour. With all the material, it will possible
to generate a code in Matlab to prepare all the data and finally, train a
model with machine learning.
After training this model, the classifier performed well, achieving 82%
accuracy. However, it is not perfect because the main mistake has been in
the images taken, some of the gloves had wrinkles, so the code detects
them as black spots. That is why, as a future work, the quality of the
images should be improved in order to not have wrinkles and hence
improve the precision for the classifiers.
Moreover, it has been proven that this tool can be implemented in the
company that has provided the gloves. With that, his plan to sell gloves in
Europe could be feasible if the bath of gloves accomplishes the required
Acceptance Quality Limit but it has not been possible to prove because the
gloves have not been randomly selected to carry out this project. Even so
knowing that the code works, it could be applied to corroborate this fact.
