Image classification is a machine learning task that involves assigning a label or class to an input image. In the context of the Infrared Solar Modules dataset, image classification can be used to identify anomalies in solar panel imagery. To achieve this goal, A convolutional neural network (CNN) model trained from scratch and fine-tuned on the Infrared Solar Modules dataset from ai4earthscience. Model includes techniques such as dropout and image data generation to enhance its accuracy on this specific dataset. With these methods, Model can achieve high accuracy in identifying solar panel anomalies even with low-size images.
