Research on Control Areas of X-line Style women’s Suit Silhouette Based on Eye-tracking Technology

Abstract

Up to now, the concept of classification basis that affects garment silhouette in patternmaking is still vague. This paper aims to analyze scientific basis for influence of pattern-making on silhouette classification by taking X-line style women’s suit as research object and using eye tracker as experimental way. Through data of TFD (total fixation duration), VC (visit count) and other indicators in four areas of interest of six X-line style women's suits, multivariate analysis of variance and average comparison were conducted for different styles and areas of interest. The study found that there was no significant difference in fixation duration and fixation count of different styles, but different areas of interest were, and it could be concluded that control areas affecting silhouette of X-line style women’s suit were mainly focused on waist, followed by chest. In this paper, the garment research connected with the machine recognition technology, which offers scientific reference significance for further research on influence of X-line style women’s suit pattern-making on silhouette.
