  • Sewing Machines and Sergers
    Welcome To Janome Institute 2011- Your Education Connection September 3 7, at The Marriott World Center Resort In Orlando i Expand Your Horizons j How about some good news, for a change? The economic recovery has been a mixed bag for the sewing industry. Customers are buying... but they’re also holding onto their purse strings a little more tightly. They’re taking longer to make that big machine purchase. But, we’ve clearly seen, when they’re excited about a machine, they will gladly make the purchase. And that’s good news. Because at Janome Institute 2011 we’re going to unveil a machine that will cause your customers to be very excited. This top-of-the-line machine is going to redefine Janome sewing the way we did with the MC8000, MC10000, and MC11000. And it’s going to cause quite a stir among your customers. Believe me, people you’ve never seen before are going to stop by your store just to see it in person. You better have your demo ready, because you’ll be doing it a lot. (It wouldn’t be a bad idea, either, to order some extra cash register tape.) On Opening Night, Saturday, September 3rd, this machine will be revealed for the first time ever to attendees of Janome Institute 2011 in Orlando. You’re going to want to be one of them. Because starting the next day, you’ll get to try out the new machine and get the sales training and product knowledge you need to become a certified dealer.

  • Term Association Modelling in Information Retrieval
    TERM ASSOCIATION MODELLING IN INFORMATION RETRIEVAL JIASHU ZHAO A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN COMPUTER SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO MARCH 2015 c Jiashu Zhao 2015 Abstract Many traditional Information Retrieval (IR) models assume that query terms are in- dependent of each other. For those models, a document is normally represented as a bag of words/terms and their frequencies. Although traditional retrieval models can achieve reasonably good performance in many applications, the corresponding inde- pendence assumption has limitations. There are some recent studies that investigate how to model term associations/dependencies by proximity measures. However, the modeling of term associations theoretically under the probabilistic retrieval frame- work is still largely unexplored. In this thesis, I propose a new concept named Cross Term, to model term prox- imity, with the aim of boosting retrieval performance. With Cross Terms, the asso- ciation of multiple query terms can be modeled in the same way as a simple unigram term. In particular, an occurrence of a query term is assumed to have an impact on its neighboring text. The degree of the query term impact gradually weakens with increasing distance from the place of occurrence. Shape functions are used to ii characterize such impacts. Based on this assumption, I first propose a bigram CRoss TErm Retrieval (CRT ER2) model for probabilistic IR and a Language model based LM model CRT ER2 . Specifically, a bigram Cross Term occurs when the correspond- ing query terms appear close to each other, and its impact can be modeled by the intersection of the respective shape functions of the query terms.

This Deborah Jones shows will help you determine your hooping procedure and you how to properly B hoop stretchy fabrics, possibly the direction that you’ll stitch your design. including how to stabilize them for shift-free DEBORAH JONES has been involved in the computerized embroidery embroidery. industry for the last 30 years. Recently, Jones has devoted much of her time to developing educational videos for embroiderers and writing the book, Machine Embroidery on Difficult Materials. Contact: djones@ embroiderycoach.com. Digitizing Pointers The underlay on patterns for stretch fabrics should tack the face fabric to the stabilizer securely to help avoid shifting. When you’re placing a large design on a knit fabric, consider slightly lengthening fill stitches for softer, loftier embroidery. Avoid overly long satin stitches, which can cause a soft knit to be pulled inward. STEP 1 Test for stretch. To test a garment for stretch, gently pull on the fabric to see if it gives most in the horizontal or vertical direction. The majority of sportswear garments, such as golf shirts and sweatshirts, stretch most horizontally.

  • Methods of Increasing the Stretchiness of Cotton Fabrics
    309 Ahmed El-Tantawi Methods of increasing the stretchiness of cotton fabrics Ahmed Ramadan Abd El Hamid Mohammed El-Tantawi. Faculty of Applied Arts, spinning weaving and knitting Department, Damietta University, [email protected] Abstract: Keywords: In response to getting more stretch and elasticity from 100% cotton fibers Stretch And Resilience as woven fabric not made from lycra or spandex yarns and so on. In this Properties survey, the researcher examines the relationship between different spinning Spinning Methods methods for Egyptian cotton using twill fabric structure under a variety of Average Float. weave factors on different weft densities to study the stretch and recovery from cotton fiber. The dependencies of the weft yarn spinning method and weft density were established. The effect of weave structure was determined. It founded that stress on the yarn will relax as a function of time due to the viscoelastic character of textile materials. The maximum wanted stretch direction will be limited to jamming in the anther direction. The max elasticity rate we get by increasing weft per cm for combed cotton but max resilience we can get at minimum weft per cm for carded cotton, Both max (elasticity& resilience) rates at same average float. The woven samples presented in this paper share three common design goals: low cost, stretchability, and long-running by comparing with their peers.
