Abstract

The paper introduces a hybrid approach that synergistically combines the strengths of VGG16, EfficientNetV2B3, and fully connected networks (FCNets) to achieve precise image classification. Specifically, our focus lies in discerning between basic indoor and outdoor scenes, further extended to distinguish between animated and natural images. Our proposed hybrid architecture harnesses the unique characteristics of each component to significantly enhance the model’s overall performance in fine-grained image categorization. In our methodology, we utilize VGG16 and EfficientNetV2B3 as the feature extractors. During evaluation, we examined various classification algorithms, such as VGG16, EfficientNet, Feature_Aggr_Avg, and Feature_Aggr_max, among others. Notably, our hybrid feature aggregation approach demonstrates a remarkable improvement of 0.5% in accuracy compared to existing solutions employing VGG16 and EfficientNet as feature extractors. Notably, for indoor versus outdoor image classification, feature_aggr_avgachieves an accuracy of 98.51%. Similarly, when distinguishing between animated and natural images, Feature_Aggr_Avgachieves an impressive accuracy of 99.20%. Our findings demonstrate improved accuracy with the hybrid model, proving its adaptability across diverse classification tasks. The model is promising for applications like automated surveillance, content filtering, and intelligent visual recognition, with its robustness and precision making it ideal for realworld scenarios requiring nuanced categorization.
