Introduction • Hairiness is considered as sum of the fibre ends and loops standing out from the main compact yarn body • The most popular instrument is the Uster hairiness system, which characterizes the hairiness by H value, and is defined as the total length of all hairs within one centimetre of yarn. • The system introduced by Zweigle, counts the number of hairs of defined lengths. The S3 gives the number of hairs of 3mm and longer. • The information obtained from both systems are limited, and the available methods either compress the data into a single vale H or S3, convert the entire data set into a spectrogram deleting the important spatial information. • Some laboratory systems dealing with image processing, decomposing the hairiness function into two exponential functions (Neckar,s Model), time consuming, dealing with very short lengths.

1st Part bimodality USTER hairiness diagram The signal from hairiness measurement between distances di is equal to the overall length of fibers protruded from the body of yarn on the length = 1 cm. This signal is expressed in the form of the hairiness diagram (HD). The raw data from Uster tester 4 were extracted and converted to individual readings corresponding to yarn hairiness, i.e. the mean value of total hair length per unit length (centimeter).
Experimental Part andMethod of Evaluation More than 75 cotton different yarns (14.5-30 tex) of different counts were spun on different spinning systems, namely ring, compact, Siro-spun, Open-end spinning, plied yarns, and vortex yarn of count 20 tex, spun from viscose fibers. All of these yarns were tested against yarn hairiness. Hair Diagram Histogram (83 columns) Normal Dist. fit OE Yarn Gaussian curve fit (20 columns) Smooth curve fit

Bi-modal distributionTwo Gaussian Distribution The bi-modal distribution can be approximated by two Gaussian distributions: Where , are proportions of shorter and longer hair distribution respectively, , are the means and , are the standard deviations. H-yarn Program written in Matlab code, using the least square method is used for estimating these parameters. these parameters.

Basic definitions of Time Series • Since, the yarn hairiness is measured at equal-distance (equal time interval), the data obtained could be analyzed on the base of time series. • A time series is a sequence of observations taken sequentially in time. The nature of the dependence among observations of a time series is of considerable practical interest. • First of all, one should investigate the stationarity of the system. • Stationary model assumes that the process remains in equilibrium about a constant mean level. The random process is strictly stationary if all statistical characteristics and distributions are independent on ensemble location. • Many tests such as nonparametric test, run test, variability (difference test), cumulative periodogram construction are provided to explore the stationarity of the process. The H-yarn is capable of estimating all of these parameters.
Basic assumptions I Let the Hairiness relative deviation y(i) is a series “spatial” realization of random process y = y(di). For analysis of this series it is necessary to know if some basic assumptions about behavior of underlying random process can be accepted stationarity ergodicity independency In fact the realizations of random process are yj(i), where index j correspond to individual realizations and index icorresponds to the distance di. In the case of ensemble,samples, there are values yj(i) fori = const. and j = 1..M at disposal. In majority of applications the ensemble samples are not available and statistical analysis is based on the one spatial realization yj(i) for j = 1 and i = 1..N. realization yj(i) forj = const. ,j = 1..N ensemble Real yarn yj(i) for i = const. ,j = 1..M For creation of data distribution and computation of moments, additional assumptions are necessary
Stationarity The random process is strictly stationary if all statistical characteristics and distributions are independent on ensemble location, i.e. the mean and variance, do not change over time or position. The wide sense stationarity of g-th order implies independence of first g moments on ensemble location. The second order stationarity implies that: mean value E(y(i)) = E(y) is constant (not dependent on the location di). VarianceD(y(i)) = D(y) is constant (not dependent on the location di). autocovariance, autocorrelation and variogram, which are functions of di and dj are not dependent on the locations but on the lag only E(y)=0
Ergodicity Ergodic process- the “ensemble” mean can be replaced by the average across the distance (from one spatial realization) Autocorrelation R(h) =0 for all sufficiently high h Ergodicity is very important, as the statistical characteristics can be calculated from one single series y(i) instead of ensembles which frequently are difficult to be obtained.
Inverse problem Inverse problem - given a series y(i), how to discover the characteristics of the underlying process. Three approaches are mainly applied: • first based on random stationary processes, • second based on the self affine processes with multi-scale nature, • third based on the theory of chaotic dynamics. In reality the multi-periodic components are often mixed with random noise.
Distribution check In most methods for data processing based on stochastic models, normal distribution is assumed. If the distribution is proved to be non-normal there are three possibilities: • the process is linear but non-Gaussian; • the process has linear dynamics, but the data are result of non-linear ”static” transformation • the process has non-linear dynamics. Real yarn The histograms for four sub samples (division of data of 400 meter yarn into 100 meter pieces).
Pseudo ensemble analysis It is suitable to construct the histograms for the e.g. four quarters of data separately and inspect non-normality or asymmetry of distribution. The statistical characteristics (mean and variances) of these sub series can support wide sense stationarity assumption The t-test statistics for comparison of two most distant means The F ratio statistics for comparison of two most distant variances
Stationarity graphs I Zero order variability diagramplot of y(i+1) on y(i). In the case of independence the random cloud of points appears on this graph. Autocorrelation of first order is indicated by linear trend. First order variability diagram is constructed taking the first differences d1(i) = y(i) – y(i-1) as new data set. The second order variability diagram is then dependence of d1(i+1) on d1(i). This diagram “correlates” three successive elements of series y(i). Second order variability diagramfor the second differences d2(i) =d1(i) –d1(i-1) Third order variability diagramfor the third order differences d3(i)=d2(i) –d2(i-1). As the order of variability diagram increases the domain of correlations increases as well.
Stationarity graphs II For characterization of independence hypothesis against periodicity alternative the cumulative periodogramC(fi) can be constructed. For white noise series (independent identical distribution i.i.d normally distributed data), the plot of C(fi) against fiwould be scattered about a straight line joining the points (0,0) and (0.5,1). Periodicities would tend to produce a series of neighboring values of I(fi) which were large. The result of periodicities therefore bumps on the expected line. The limit lines for 95 % confidence interval of C(fi) are drawn at distances
y x Spatial correlations Autocovariance function Second equality is valid for centered data E(y) = 0 and wide sense stationarity (autocovariance is dependent on the lag h and not on the positions i). For lag h = 0 the variance results s2 = v = c(0). Autocorrelation function y(i) i =0..N-1
AutocorrelationR(1) Simply the Autocorrelation function is a comparison of a signal with itself as a function of time shift. Autocorrelation coefficient of first order R(1) can be evaluated as Roughly, if R(1) is in interval no autocorrelation of first order is identified.
Frequency domain The Fast Fourier Transformation is used to transform from time domain to frequency domain and back again is based on Fourier transform and its inverse. There are many types of spectrum analysis, PSD, Amplitude spectrum, Auto regressive frequency spectrum, moving average frequency spectrum, ARMA freq. Spectrum and many other types are included in Hyarn program.
Fractal DimensionHurst Exponent The cumulative of white Identically Distribution noise is known as Brownian motion or a random walk. The Hurst exponent is a good estimator for measuring the fractal dimension. The Hurst equation is given as . The parameter H is the Hurst exponent. In measurement of surface profile (R(h)), the data are available through one dimensional line transect surface. The fractal dimension can be measured by 2-H. In this case the cumulative of white noise will be 1.5. More useful is expressing the fractal dimension by 1/H using probability space rather than geometrical space. Fractal dimension D is then number between 1 (for smooth curve) and 2. One of best methods for evaluation of or H is based on the power spectral density For small Fourierfrequencies is often evaluated from empirical representation of the log of power spectral density versus log frequency.

Conclusions • The yarn hairiness distribution can be fitted to a bimodal model distribution. • described by two mixed Gaussian distributions. • The portion, mean and the standard deviation of each component leads to deeper understanding and evaluation of hairiness. • This method is quick compared to image analysis system, • The Hyarn system is a powerful program for evaluation and analysis of yarn hairiness as a dynamic process, in both time and frequency domain. • H-yarn program is capable of estimating the short and long term dependency. • Hairiness of Vortex yarn is lowest followed by compact yarns. • Siro spun yarns have less values compared to ring and plied and open-end yarns. This is mainly observed due to the short component and the portion of hairs. • The highest values of hairiness belong to plied yarns, since they pass more operations (doubling and twisting).
