An exploration of AI on fashion and textile on the most promising theories and applied intelligence topics Over the last two decades, with the great advancement of computer technology, academic research in artificial intelligence (AI) and its applications in fashion and textile supply chain have been becoming a very hot topic and have received greater attention from both academics and industrialists. Meanwhile, large amount of data created by various mobile platforms, social media interactions, and e-commerce transactions in the emerging online fashion business provide an opportunity for researchers and practitioners to study and develop systems for understanding consumer behaviors and tailoring the services of online platforms by effective use of AI. Arising from the above, a number of AI and machine learning related techniques have been successfully employed and proven to handle the problems including fashion sales forecasting, supply chain optimization, planning and scheduling, textile material defect detection, fashion and textile image recognition, fashion image and style retrieval, human body modeling and fitting, etc. AI Techniques covered: Big data capture, representation, and analytics/Neural networks/Computer human interaction/Pattern Recognition: detection, classification, indexing/ Computer Vision/Segmentation, grouping and shape representation/Multidisciplinary AI/Image processing and retrieval/Search and optimization/Deep learning/Evolutionary computation/Web/Social media mining/Fuzzy computation Applications covered: Textile and apparel supply chain modeling/ Smart textile and apparel/Textile material defect detection/ Wearable devices/ Textile material color measurement/ Fashion recommendation and evaluation / Internet of things/ Fashion understanding and design/Inventory planning and control/ Fashion sales forecasting/Production planning and scheduling/ Retail sales replenishment/ Production line-balancing/ 3D image modeling for fitting/ Intelligent decision systems/ Clothing image retrieval and parsing AIFT 2019 : Nov 25-27 - See you in Shanghai Pudong! With the great success of the AIFT Conference 2018 in Hong Kong, the AIFT conference 2019 in Shanghai will bring together researchers, engineers and practitioners on the area of using AI on fashion and textiles for discussing and exploring the most promising theories and applied intelligence topics.
