Classification of Sambas Traditional Fabric “Kain Lunggi” Using Texture Feature

Abstract

Traditional fabric is a cultural heritage that has to be preserved. Kain Lunggi is Sambas traditional fabric that saw a decline in its crafter. To introduce Kain Lunggi in a broader national and global society in order to preserve it, a digital image processing based system to perform Kain Lunggi pattern recognition need to be built. Feature extraction is an important part of digital image processing. The visual feature that does not represent the character of an object will affect the accuracy of a recognition system. The purposes of this research are to perform feature selection on sets of feature to determine the best feature that can increase recognition accuracy.

This research conducted in several steps which are image acquisition of Kain Lunggi pattern, preprocessing to reduce image noise, feature extraction to obtain image features, and feature selection. GLCM is implemented as a feature extraction method.  Feature extraction result will be used in a feature selection process using CFS (Correlation-based Feature Selection) methods. Selected features from CFS process are Angular Second Moment, Contrast, and Correlation. Selected features evaluation is conducted by calculating classification accuracy with the KNN method. Classification accuracy prior to feature extraction is 85.18% with K values K=1 ; meanwhile, the accuracy increases to 88.89% after feature selection. The highest accuracy improvement of 20.74% in KNN occurred when using K value K= 4.
