    Supporting Knitwear Design Using Case-Based Reasoning
    (Cranfield University Press, 2009-03-31) Richards, P.; Ekárt, A.; Rajkumar Roy; Essam Shehab
    Knitwear design is a creative activity that is hard to automate using the computer. The production of the associated knitting pattern, however, is repetitive, time-consuming and error-prone, calling for automation. Our objectives are two-fold: to facilitate the design and to ease the burden of calculations and checks in pattern production. We conduct a feasibility study for applying case-based reasoning in knitwear design: we describe appropriate methods and show how they can be implemented.
