Review of Expert Systems in the Coloration and Textile Industry

Artificial intelligence is an advanced technology which is recently taking into account by researchers. In fact, Artificial intelligence is a method that provides required base to do intelligent processes by computer. A branch of artificial intelligence is Expert systems. These systems are computer tools that imitate knowledge and inference procedures of human experts to solve problems related to a specialized domain, so they consult at the level of a human expert and necessarily decide.
