Expert system for the design of silk products based on web

In general, the design of silk products relies on the user's preferences. Conventional design system for silk products utilizes an old-fashioned design method that designers need to design the products manually. However, this task is very complicated and difficult. Therefore, the automation of products' design is very necessary. In this paper, we have innovatively built and verified a fuzzy rule-based expert system for silk products' design based on Web. We generate the fuzzy rules by summarizing the experts' knowledge and experience. Through connecting to the database, the expert system of silk products' design utilizes the data stored in the database and the rules stored in the knowledge base to reason out the design results which are needed. It was proved that the proposed expert system is able to advise on the design of silk products for designers. The results verified the robustness of the proposed silk products' design system that could provide satisfactory performance in this new idea.

I. Introduction

Now, with the further development of the global economy, the demand of domestic and overseas market for silk products is getting more and more attention. Meanwhile, in contemporary China and the world, Chinese traditional design of silk is still shining light. We need to combine the traditional silk art with the contemporary design. However, the current design method of silk products is outmoded. And it still stays at the stage of using designers' manual design. The disadvantage of this design method is its low efficiency. What's more, the effect of design is not ideal. Silk products' design level of the domestic market is far from meeting the production requirements. We must improve the efficiency of products' design. It puts forward higher requirements for design of silk products in intelligence, automation, efficiency and other aspects.
