Two methods of automated assessment of the appearance of seam pucker based on the Hough transform are proposed. We treat this problem as a pattern recognition problem. From the given standard photographs of suits, which are classified into five classes, we determine a template pattern for each class. These patterns are separated well in the feature space. Although there are several items to be assessed, we focus our attention on the seam of the back of suits. Using a few test samples we made an experiment on the assessment. The results suggest the possibility of practical use.
