The complexity of the motifs and large number of different patterns make the classification of Toraja carvings challenging. The objective of this study is to develop a Convolutional Neural Network automatic classification model using a comparative analysis of the performance of three ResNet architectures. Data augmentation techniques were used to enrich the diversity of the training samples and improve the robustness of the model. The experimental results showed that ResNet101V2 had the highest validation accuracy, which was greater than 97%, followed by ResNet50V2 with more than 96%, and finally, ResNet152V2 with more than 94.74%. These test results indicate that the ResNet101V2 architecture has a better classification performance for complex motifs, with a good balance between precision and recall. However, the confusion matrix and per-class performance metrics indicated that motifs with high similarity, such as Paqdon-Bolu and Paqtedong, remained challenging. This study demonstrated that deeper CNN architectures and data augmentation techniques are effective in improving the classification accuracy of complex carving patterns. Further research should explore hybrid or advanced augmentation methods to improve the overall robustness and accuracy of the model.
