Exploring the Unexplored: Understanding the Impact of Layer Adjustments on Image Classification

This paper investigates how adjustments to deep learning architectures impact model performance in image classification. Small-scale experiments generate initial insights although the trends observed are not consistent with the entire dataset. Filtering operations in the image processing pipeline are crucial, with image filtering before pre-processing yielding better results. The choice and order of layers as well as filter placement significantly impact model performance. This study provides valuable insights into optimizing deep learning models, with potential avenues for future research including collaborative platforms.
