Abstract
Purpose
The first of a two‐part series, this paper aims to discuss the design and development of an artificial intelligence‐based hybrid model to understand human perception of the tactile properties of textile materials and create an objective system to express those tactile perceptions in terms of measurable mechanical properties.
Design/methodology/approach
A forward engineering system using the Model Free Algorithm approach of the Artificial Intelligence Technique to predict the tactile comfort score is presented.
Findings
Human perception of tactile sensation is based on the weighted stimulus perceived by the human neural system.
Originality/value
Contribution to intelligent textile and garment manufacture.
