This study is devoted to exploring the strategy of automatic sketch generation and optimization of industrial design based on deep learning. By combining the Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) with the optimization algorithm, this paper proposes an innovative method to realize the automatic generation of high-quality and diverse industrial design sketches. In the experiment, this paper selects SketchyCAD and other public data sets, trains them through deep learning model, and introduces genetic algorithm(GA) and differential evolution algorithm to optimize the parameters. In terms of experimental results, we observed that the quality of generated sketches was significantly improved, and the design sketches generated by the mode (GAN+GA) were more realistic and innovative. The introduction of optimization strategy further improves the generation effect and intelligently adjusts the model parameters to adapt to different design styles. In this paper, the influence of hyperparameter tuning is analyzed in detail, and it is found that the adjustment of learning rate plays a key role in generating quality and diversity. However, the experiment also revealed some challenges and room for improvement. We noticed that the generated results may have the risk of over-fitting in the training process, and with the increase of training times, the diversity gradually decreased. This suggests that more complex model structure and richer data sets are needed to improve the generalization performance. Generally speaking, this study provides new ideas and methods for the integration of deep learning and industrial design. By innovatively combining generation model and optimization algorithm, this research has contributed beneficial research results to the development of industrial design automation. This research is of great significance to promote the intelligence and innovation in the field of industrial design.

... Customers and the business enterprise want the client to discover relevant fashion items when they are searching, and this is where recommender systems come into the picture [6]. In 2024, the size of the domestic fashion market will have grown by 8.8% compared to its size in 2020 [7][8][9]. Being one of the hottest study topics currently in progress at both the national and international levels, recommender systems are the ideal solution for suitable fashion discovery in e-commerce, and the recommender systems possess several strong points; nevertheless, recommender systems also possess some weaknesses in the accuracy of their results. However, content-based information retrieval (CBIR) has become one of the hotspot topics; it retrieves items based entirely on the image content, which decreases some of the weaknesses, especially in fashion, by computing similarities among items and users through a set of features associated with them [10]. ...

Many people wonder, when they look at fashion models on social media or on television, whether they could look like them by wearing similar products. Furthermore, many people suffer when they sometimes find fashion models in e-commerce, and they want to obtain similar products, but after clicking on the fashion model, they receive unwanted products or products for the opposite gender. To address these issues, in our work, we built a multi-task learning and gender-aware fashion recommendation system (MLGFRS). The proposed MLGFRS can increase the revenue of the e-commerce fashion market. Moreover, we realized that people are accustomed to clicking on that part of the fashion model, which includes the product they want to obtain. Therefore, we classified the query image into many cropped products to detect the user’s click. What makes this paper novel is that we contributed to improving the efficiency performance by detecting the gender from the query image to reduce the retrieving time. Second, we effectively improved the quality of results by retrieving similarities for each object in the query image to recommend the most relevant products. The MLGFRS consists of four components: gender detection, object detection, similarity generation, and recommendation results. The MLGFRS achieves better performance compared to the state-of-the-art baselines.

Online shopping experiences should be simplified by incorporating essential features such as virtual try-on clothing and recommending new items based on the customer’s preferences. This is necessary given the rapid growth of the fashion industry and the expansion of shopping technologies. In this paper, we propose a new approach integrating fashion image retrieval and recommendation with a 3D virtual try-on network. We aim to build an interactive attributes-preserving model that allows users to choose the favourite garments and virtually try them on after uploading a frontal image of the whole body. Several deep learning architectures are used to extract and learn the key attributes of garment image, by which each formulated image is subjected to effective human body segmentation and pose estimation procedures. Then, a 3D VTON network is used to generate a 3D image of the user wearing a specific garment, after which the fashion retrieval system recommends and ranks more relevant items. Extensive experiments on multi-domain fashion dataset demonstrate that the proposed framework outperforms the state-of-the-art methods in terms of fashion retrieval and attribute relevancy, achieving a top@30 accuracy of 80.02%, an NDCG@30 of 80.26%, and a top@30 mAP of 87.71%. Additionally, the generated generic image descriptors require very little memory space, enabling rapid online learning and retrieval of large-scale 3D images.

Content-based fashion image retrieval (CBFIR) has been widely used in our daily life for searching fashion images or items from online platforms. In e-commerce purchasing, the CBFIR system can retrieve fashion items or products with the same or comparable features when a consumer uploads a reference image, image with text, sketch or visual stream from their daily life. This lowers the CBFIR system reliance on text and allows for a more accurate and direct searching of the desired fashion product. Considering recent developments, CBFIR still has limits when it comes to visual searching in the real world due to the simultaneous availability of multiple fashion items, occlusion of fashion products, and shape deformation. This paper focuses on CBFIR methods with the guidance of images, images with text, sketches, and videos. Accordingly, we categorized CBFIR methods into four main categories, i.e., image-guided CBFIR (with the addition of attributes and styles), image and text-guided, sketch-guided, and video-guided CBFIR methods. The baseline methodologies have been thoroughly analyzed, and the most recent developments in CBFIR over the past six years (2017 to 2022) have been thoroughly examined. Finally, key issues are highlighted for CBFIR with promising directions for future research.

With the rapid development of artificial intelligence, much more attention has been paid to deep learning. However, as the complexity of learning algorithms increases, the needs of computation power of hardware facilities become more crucial. Instead of the focus being on computing devices like GPU computers, a lightweight learning algorithm could be the answer for this problem. Cross-domain applications of deep learning have attracted great interest amongst researchers in academia and industries. For beginners who do not have enough support with software and hardware, an open-source development environment is very helpful. In this paper, a relatively lightweight algorithm YOLOv5s is addressed, and the Google Colab is used for model training and testing. Based on the developed environment, many state-of-art learning algorithms can be studied for performance comparisons. To highlight the benefits of one-stage object detection algorithms, the recognition of clothing styles is investigated. The image samples are selected from datasets of fashion clothes and the web crawling of online stores. The image data are categorized into five groups: plaid; plain; block; horizontal; and vertical. Average precison, mean average precison, recall, F1-score, model size, and frame per second are the metrics used for performance validations. From the experimental outcomes, it shows that YOLOv5s is better than other learning algorithms in the recognition accuracy and detection speed.

In recent years, the World Wide Web (WWW) has established itself as a popular source of information. Using an effective approach to investigate the vast amount of information available on the internet is essential if we are to make the most of the resources available. Visual data cannot be indexed using text-based indexing algorithms because it is significantly larger and more complex than text. Content-Based Image Retrieval, as a result, has gained widespread attention among the scientific community (CBIR). Input into a CBIR system that is dependent on visible features of the user's input image at a low level is difficult for the user to formulate, especially when the system is reliant on visible features at a low level because it is difficult for the user to formulate. In addition, the system does not produce adequate results. To improve task performance, the CBIR system heavily relies on research into effective feature representations and appropriate similarity measures, both of which are currently being conducted. In particular, the semantic chasm that exists between low-level pixels in images and high-level semantics as interpreted by humans has been identified as the root cause of the issue. There are two potentially difficult issues that the e-commerce industry is currently dealing with, and the study at hand addresses them. First, handling manual labeling of products as well as second uploading product photographs to the platform for sale are two issues that merchants must contend with. Consequently, it does not appear in the search results as a result of misclassifications. Moreover, customers who don't know the exact keywords but only have a general idea of what they want to buy may encounter a bottleneck when placing their orders. By allowing buyers to click on a picture of an object and search for related products without having to type anything in, an image-based search algorithm has the potential to unlock the full potential of e-commerce and allow it to reach its full potential. Inspired by the current success of deep learning methods for computer vision applications, we set out to test a cutting-edge deep learning method known as the Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) for investigating feature representations and similarity measures. We were motivated to do so by the current success of deep learning methods for computer vision applications (CV). According to the experimental results presented in this study, a deep machine learning approach can be used to address these issues effectively. In this study, a proposed Deep Fashion Convolution Neural Network (DFCNN) model that takes advantage of transfer learning features is used to classify fashion products and predict their performance. The experimental results for image-based search reveal improved performance for the performance parameters that were evaluated.
